Hello,

Gingers crop( which is always bulging by the end of the day) seems to be lopsided over to her right, rather than central on her chest, Is this normal??

 

She's fine and simply blossoming at the moment as the two bullies have been controlled by their bumper bits just looks odd at the end of the day

[moochoo]

Hi, yes it's perfectly normal. It is more noticable on the greedier girls...they do look rather buxom

[C&T]

My Ginger is exactly the same. She is such a greedy thing.

 

I do sometimes wonder if she will fall over forwards with the weight of it all... But it does all disappear overnight.

 

Perhaps a Chicken Bra would be useful

I was interested to read this as 2 of my girls have very lopsided and large crops. Glad it's normal. They are greedy little ladies though and the amount they eat staggers me.

[Hen Watch]

Oh yes it's fine.

 

Some of my girls are left handed crop swingers and some right handed. But it gets digested at night ready to start again with an empty crop in the morning.

I only really notice it on my Batties as they are bare chested at the mo, the others are either central girls or their huge quantity of chest feathers covers any lopsidedness!
