Chick with weird voice

[Oldegarlicshnapp]

I have a chick that sounds like someone is scratching some vinyl. None of my six other chicks sound like this, and they’ve been in close proximity to each other for three days. This bird has sounded like this since it hatched from the incubator. It’s a very scratchy, raspy, all together strange sound. It screams especially loud and is easier to upset than the other birds if it’s pecked or picked up.

Can you post a video of this chick please? You will have to upload it to Youtube or another video platform, and then post the link here.

Here’s the first and the second video. The first is it regularly, the next is how it sounds while burrowing into the other chicks

That sounds normal to me. Sounds like she's trying to get warm. Do you have heat in that brooder?

Yeah there’s a good amount. The voice is definitely scratchy and weird though, especially in comparison to the others. If anyone else hears it they point it out right off the bat
