Sour Crop? Pendulous crop? Help please

Get the Epsom salts that is meant to be consumed, no lavender scent. It's a mild laxative.

Chickens I have administered this flush to have been energized by it. There's a good chance that she will poop, opening up her digestive tract, and she will then be motivated to drink water on her own. So assume this and don't tube plain water unless it appears she isn't going to drink.

Have you offered her regular solid chicken feed? If not, do so. The flush should open up the digestive tract and she should then be eager to eat regular feed. She can have both food and water in between flushes. But if she does eat food, wait until the crop empties before administering the flush solution.
She has had access to feed, worms, and grit and she has no interest in it. When you say she can have food and water in between. Flushes which would mean in between the a.m. And the p.m. flush, does that include her liquid tube feeding formula which also contains a good bit of water? And as far as the Epsom salt that I should order, if it says food grade, does that mean it should be okay to use for her as a flush?
 
Yes, food grade is what you want. Magnesium sulfate is a mild laxative that draws fluid out of the intestines to lubricate and carry out the waste. Unless the patient has tumors blocking things, this flush almost always works.

This is what I been able to find on Amazon that can arrive the soonest, Sunday. Even though it says food grade it says do not ingest. I'm scared I'm going to give her the wrong thing and hurt/kill her, I just don't know what to trust. I want to get started on this ASAP because she is so pale.
