Sour Crop Again & Worms?

[charlotteda]

I have a 1 yr old Lavender Ameraucana hen that keeps getting sour crop. I treat it with monistat and it clears up but in a few weeks come back. She is fine otherwise and has laid eggs. I’ve treated them with safeguard goat wormer but not positive my dosage/treatment window was correct. So I ordered expensive Aquasole - thinking it was better. Now I understand it treats even fewer worms. I hate to cull her because decent Lav are impossible to find here. But o don’t want her to suffer. Anyone have any good suggestions for when I finish this Aquasole?

It sounds like the crop problem is unresolved.

You're treating with Miconazole, but it may be time to either switch to something like Nystatin, give a flush or even treat with Acidified Copper Sulfate to see if that makes a difference.

Aquasol© given as directed on the packaging will treat Roundworms Only. It's also designed to go in the Flock's Water based on weight and would be very hard to treat just one individual bird. https://merckusa.cvpservice.com/product/view/1047550

To treat just one hen, then follow the information given to you in Post#2 on your thread from earlier this year.

If you lose her, having a necropsy to find out what was going on with her would give you some answers.
