When sour crop contents are allowed to remain in the crop and 'stuff'
is used to 'try' to move the material through the gut....an Aviculturist is
begging for problems.
Please get to your veterinarian and learn how to 'flush' out sour
crop contents.
This is a symptom of a problem no matter what is the cause and the
contents
must be removed and the 'cause' to be addressed.
I hope this helps.
