She's awake, and already walking around apparantly 😂 chickens amaze me... Picking her up shortly. See what they found

He wasn't sure what caused it. Just lots of undigested foods like seeds and greens. There was white mushy stuff which he could not identify which he said acted as the plugs.

I may review the bedding. Just incase, cause she is a next level greedy hen!

Are there discussions about the safest type please?

Most of us use pine shavings. Some use hay or straw. Problem with those two is that the birds feet don't stay as clean and dry. Others use sand.

Sometimes they do big out on grass and it can wad and cause a blockage. If he thinks the white stuff was the cause there may be something in their environment that she's found to snack on.

Yes that's the same bedding as I use. I was advised to avoid straw?

Hopefully it was just a one off with her. She's recovering well so far.

I was worried since you didn't say anything after getting her home. Happy to read she's doing well.

Straw isn't awful. It won't mold like hay will. It's just that it doesn't do much to keep the birds' feet clean and dry.

how cute is she all wrapped up?

Giggle. Your birds are so spoiled.
