My Baby chick is opening and closing its mouth

[Denise0708]

My baby chick is 1 week old maybe week and half and this is the first time I’m noticing it. I saw some people write about this I’m just nervous because i didn’t notice any of the other chicks doing it.

Looks like they're just rearranging the crop, it's not necessarily something to be worried about in my experience unless they aren't eating properly.

My chicks were doing that repeatedly and I thought it looked like crowing and assumed they were roosters. My chicks are 2 weeks old. If there is a chance they were rearranging the crop,....I have hope

Just likely adjusting its crop. Normal chick behavior
