Hi all,
My two chicks sometimes make gagging motions with their mouths. It looks similar to yawning, but they keep doing it over and over again, so it looks more like they are gagging. They don't do this very often--just once in awhile. They act healthy, and I wonder what this means.
Also, anyone know what it means when a chick twitches it's head when you talk to it? Either I've got bad breath or the chicken is telling me to be quiet! I've had other pet birds do this too, and always wondered what it meant.
