munkee1965 Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 One of my girls has got a hard swollen crop. She seems to be eating at the moment but I have seem a couple of nasty poos off her. Any help appreciated. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Do you mean hard all the time or when you've checked her? Have a look when you get her up. I've found they can stay full if an egg is waiting to be passed or they've eaten a lot of grass, they'll stop pooing as well. If its still full in the morning try giving her some oil from a spoon or syringe and massage the crop gently to help break it down every couple of hours and make sure she has access to water. If still hard on that regime then live mealworms are said to work clearing the blockage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
