Oh my God! You’ve got to let the chickens back up at least after 6 seconds in order to breath. You can put her back upside down gently but chickens cannot breathe upside down like that when things are coming out. You could tell she was trying to come back up for air…

Take it from someone with many years of experience. This chicken has a distended, impacted crop. The fluid that you are squeezing out, is fluid that is trapped in the impacted material ( grass, seed, all sorts of fibrous material. You will need to cut open thr crop, about 1.5" through skin and CAREFULLY into crop and CAREFULLY remove material with blunt tweezers. Then, clean wound and stitch back up. This chicken in extremely distended and needs the crop emptied very soon, or it's toes up for the poor fella.

You're welcome. Someone taught me too. Colace is the brand name for docusate sodium (crop bound capsules) at the drug stores. I give 2 -50mg caps and make sure they are drinking. Use a syringe to get water down the throat if you have to. Problem with crop bound is sometimes it is intestinal. Like enteritis, and if the bird gets too sick or gets dehydrated, it is in the danger zone.

Hold two middle fingers between the legs and it won't be so hard on the bird's joints. Holding it upside down for too long as well. You don't want to aspirate liquid into the lungs. Get some docusate sodium (crop bound capsules) and give the bird one with 10cc of water down the throat after puking up that junk. Medistatin in the water helps too.

Did your hen end up being okay? I read that for this type of problem, also known as sour crop, you can turn the bird upside down and massage the crop and a bunch of fluid will come out, which will help clear the blockage. My hen has a similar but different problem of an impacted crop, I believe. Her crop is very large and very hard. I am trying to figure out how to treat that. I think I'm going to try giving her some water and massaging the crop. Thanks for the nice video.

In all these "emptying the crop" videos where they hold the chicken upside down to empty the crop, the only thing I see coming out is liquid. The liquid is not what is impacting the crop. Its the solids, and I never see solids come out, so can not see the benefit of this method. In fact, when the crop is impacted, the only source of nutrition for the chicken is the nutrients contained in the liquid since the nutrition in the solid materials is not being processed.

Don't let it be true She claims to have years of experience, the owner of the hen in the video verified the hen died three days later, and numerous others have criticized this video for poor technique, primarily because he does not appear to allow the hen time to breathe and because he is holding her incorrectly. So it would seem she has a point and is not spreading false information. Whether this is animal cruelty or just someone trying to help an animal but using a bad technique is a matter of opinion. I give this man the benefit of the doubt because he genuinely was trying to help and thought he was doing it right, and has acknowledged that he knows better now and has learned how to help his animals properly.

That's how you deal with a sour crop. "When chickens gorge themselves on long, fibrous foods, their crop (and occasionally gizzard) can become blocked. Sometimes this results in an impacted crop, which is a crop that is full of a tangle of fibre that is firm, dry and relatively hard. Sometimes, the bird will drink a lot to try to help pass the blockage....this will result in sour crop, which is a crop full of watery, half-rotten, acidic soup that actually smells worse than it sounds. Sour crop can be helped by holding the bird face-down, at about a 60 degree angle, and massaging the crop towards the throat....the stinky mess should come out like vomit, and reduce the swelling."

I just dealt with a 21 week old chicken who had an impacted crop. Thank God giving her mineral oil and massage worked at softening it up and she pooped it all out that night. What I'm saying is that this person is not holding the chicken at a 60 degree angle, she is totally upside down. Also he is not giving her a break to breath so she is more than likely getting it in her breathing pipe and lungs. Also it looks very rough how he is handling her. He stated she died a few days later. Poor chicken.:(
