Is it normal for a 1 yr. old Rooster to have constant cracks in his crow?

My Rooster used to have voice cracks here and there but now its constant with the voice cracks in his crow. He turned 1 in Feb.

What breed is he? Some roosters have diffferent crows. Although it may be a problem. Do they have a constant supply of CLEAN water?

he's a Swedish flower. I supply them with clean water every morning but he LOVES to drink the dirty water that spills into the dirt. It's like a "treat" to him.

He might be in need of deworming, as always drinking from puddles might have infested him with gapeworms.

He may have ingested something into his airway. Chicken have voice boxes rather than vocal chords and it is relatively easy for a small particle of food or some other object to partially obstruct the airway/vice box.

Right. That was one of my thoughts.

How can I deworming him? If I do deworming him and he doesnt have gapeworm he will be fine right?

Deworming will do no harm if done correctly.

Maybe you can upload a video of his crowing to give us a better idea.

My one year old rooster had the same problem but in the 2nd year he got better at crowing I do not think its something to worry about and he was healthy. If he does not have any symptoms of gapeworm I would not worry he will get better at crowing.

That's what I was thinking but the only time hes crows is like in the morning when he wants me for something and that's it.

Then try to record it.
