Stuck and a bit worried:
We have a couvier moran with a very large crop, it isn't eactly hard as u can move it but it is low. She appears now to be off her food. What do I need to do please.
She is on pellets and allowed to wonder. (No picked grass or hay) I feel like Ive missed something though. Thanks

there is a danger in letting them wonder - have you not seen "Chicken Run?"

Here are a few links for you to take a look at, but if you not experienced with poultry and she is a pet it may be best to take her to the vets or at least someone who is an old hand with poultry
