For some reason I was thinking gizzard and typed crop. I also know there function.
I am aware of Metabolism and it's functions and how it is broken down into two types Anabolism and Catabolism. I also know that the Energy of a set feed/ feed product is broken down into digestible energy (DE), net energy maintenance (NEm), and net energy growth (NEg).
Now the gizzard is a muscle that takes very little energy to do it job and helps keep a chicken warm wile its working about as much as our tongue moving up and down.
There are a few good studies on this subject and not one that I have read said anything about corn "heating" up poultry.
