stephenwhite990 Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 We have three old chickens and four ex bats which we have had for about three weeks , today when picking up one of our ex bats she is very puffy / inflamed under her neck just by the top of her legs , this is not hard and feels soft and squishy , but it doesnt feel right !!! Any ideas what this is or is a trip to the vets needed!!! Cheers for any help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 Are you sure it isn't her crop? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephenwhite990 Posted June 13, 2010 Author Share Posted June 13, 2010 It is her crop but it shouldnt be as big as it is . she may have sour crop , I have tried getting her to be sick and massaging it . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stephenwhite990 Posted June 14, 2010 Author Share Posted June 14, 2010 Thanks I had read that but it is very helpfull . This morning it doesnt seem as big as it did yesterday , I cant get anything to come out of her beak and she doesnt smell so hopefully she is breaking it down , we will keep on massaging her and will give her some yoghurt today .
