Help!! Bloated crop in week old chicks

[Stedman]

i do t know if it’s normal or not but all six chicks crops feel bloated almost if full of air. Everyone of behaving normal but I’m concerned

When you say full of air do you mean firm?

No more squishy feeling

No more squishy feeling

Maybe a little both, firm but squishy at the same time if that makes sense, but it’s the same with all 6

What are they eating? Any other issues? Are their crops empty some of the time?

@Stedman Ok, a few other questions,

Any other side effects? How does their breath smell? Are there any white patches in their mouths? Are they having regular bowel movements?

Just dumor chick starter/grower. One seems to have diarrhea. Other than that they are acting completely normal

This seems to be a normal thing for my chicks, based on breed and personality. Our brown leghorn gorges herself and is really greedy and ends up with a very large crop at times, but she's been this way since we got her. One of our barred rocks tends to have a fuller crop than the other. They are a little more than two weeks old and are doing great.

Unless it doesn't seem to empty/be empty in the morning, you likely have nothing to worry about.

So I think they see just overeating, seems to be bloated at night and back to normal in the morning
