Where can I get a crop feeding tube?

The aquarium air tubing is only good for liquids, raw egg, and yogurt, but not wet chicken feed. I believe @casportpony uses the 16 or 18 french red catheters plus a catheter tip syringe. Baby parrot KayTee feed is good to use, and if using chicken feed, it must be ground up first. Here is a good thread she has:

We actually had success with the aquarium tube and chicken feed after my husband ran the crumbles through a food processor to make it super fine. I've learned so much in this last month. I feel like I'll know what to do if this ever happens again with more confidence and a little less panic.

Good to know about the chicken feed. I have used the aquarium air tubing but not for feed, and oxygen tubing works as well. Tractor supply and Lowes sell similar plastic tubing. Having a catheter tip syringe will fit on a larger tubing.

I was given a lamb feeding tube by my vet for crop feeding. Any farm supply places near you would sell one.

We searched high and low. Even our farm stores do not have them
