This is what her poop looks like most of the time

Then re-treat. She was not "cured". You didn't finish the course.

You are giving too many treatments all at once and not following through.

You have info on how to proceed with this. Good luck.

For how many days to treat sour crop it’s been months that I have treated my hen. Also she gots a bit of food on her neck feathers that she cleans right now she was cleaning her neck feathers that had bit of wet food mush on it and some of it she eats

I hear you, and of course there are other factors to consider, but these birds have been suffering for days on end in Texas heat.

Sure, it does cost less to replace a bird, but some of us don't look at life as a financial equation or a cost trade-off.

Finally, if a child trying to get help from their parent regarding a vet bill causes problems in the family, then the "family" communication problem tells me that they probably shouldn't have chickens (or any other animal) in the first place.

Leaving this to a 16 year old child to struggle through is unconscionable in my world... :-(

Most families aren’t taking chickens to the vet period. This is a relatively new phenomenon and is not considered normal. Chickens are still livestock……for now.
