I’m so glad to hear this!So I had to order antibiotics online and they haven't come yet, so we never went that direction, but I have been treating for sour/impacted crop and we had a breakthrough this morning! I gave olive oil and massaged her crop several times yesterday and last night She pooped out a long stringy hard poop, followed by a massive blowout all over the wall of my chicken hospital. She seems like herself this morning. Drinking a lot, her crop is empty. I gave her some plain yogurt and a little bit of scrambled egg. I’m going to monitor her for a few days to make sure that her poops normalize and slowly reintroduce food. It looks like she had a wad of hay blocking her digestive tract. I will also check that there are no more fleshy masses in her poop and maybe try to send in a poop sample to make sure she doesn’t have parasites. I will update if she regresses or we find some sort of reproductive issue.
I can’t thank everyone enough for the help. It is so hard to feel like you can’t help your bird.
And everyone who replied gave me more hope and confidence I could help her.
