choking rooster!

[GoldenSparrow]

one of my roosters chokes alot. He is the same rooster, that is in the thread i posted on
slow rooster maybe depressed?

Is it normal for a roo to choke?
when he does it, he opens his mouth wide, and you can hear him breatheing. also he makes a highpich squeaking noise.

sometimes it takes him minutes to clear his throat again.
It really scares me when he does it. somtimes I will pour water down his throat , and it somtimes helps a bit.

what could be wrong with my rooster??????

My chickens eat really fast when they are really hungry sometimes and they choke and squeek and go on because of it. My "special" chicken sometimes just stands there with her throat full of food and her mouth wide open... cause she's... special.

If mine aren't normal (besides special chicken), I'm not sure what is?

I think its so wierd that they do that. It sure creeps me out.
I dont ever want to hear a chicken choke again
