My 3 year old hen recently went to the vet for reproductive issues. She had swelling in her abdomen which was drained and she seemed in much better spirits. So much better that she finally ate after 2 months of not eating much at all.
However I noticed that two days after her drainage she was sluggish again, her crop was full in the morning. I understand reproductive issues can cause crop issues and I don’t think it’s sour crop or impacted crop. Her crop feels like a normal crop, not too squishy like water and not hard as a rock like impaction. Does anyone have any ideas on what to do? Do crop massages work? Olive oil? I’m really grabbing at straws here because she seemed ok only for two days but has crop issues again!
