Crop Question

[JesBarthel]

This is probably a silly thing to ask, but is the crop centered on a chicks chest, or is it off to one side? One of my chicks is 6/7 weeks old, and the older he gets, the more I'm noticing that when he eats, only the right side of his chest puffs out. Is this normal/okay? It doesn't seem to bother him at all.

I had this exact question! My girls are 5/6 weeks and I just noticed that their crops were "dressing" to the right. Glad to hear this is fine. Thanks, all!
