Okay so we have a 3 week old chick that has been crowing non stop (20-35 times per hour) for the last couple of days now but what I'm really concerned about is that he's breathing really hard and almost seems to have a deep rattle in his chest accompanied by wet sneezes. He's acting like a normal chick and is still eating/drinking but I'm still concerned about him.
He's on clean pine litter, clean food, clean water and hasn't been exposed to anything other than his own hatching group.
Update - There's a distinct squeeking/clicking noise with each breath and is laying regular stool but it has a bit of blood in it.
