My chicken puke!

[Catbutts]

So I got my hybrid chicken 2 weeks ago 1 of them is fine. But the other one is kinda weird. She often stretch her neck and I use to saw her vomit (only 2 time) and today she make a wheezing noice. Despite those symptoms, she is fine. She eat and drink normally and don't seem depress. Any idea? Ps. I live in a hot climate and those chicken are around 17-19 weeks old

If your chicken does not vomit much, then it probably isn't anything to worry about.
One of my chickens is also a hybrid used to occasionally vomit too but she stopped ages ago.
Maybe your chicken ate too much, or she could have not been used to a different type of food or climate.

sometimes water spill out of chicken's crops if they drink too much. this sounds like the problem, its normal and the wheezing may be because some water went down the wrong pipe.

Thank you! That's a relief.

Where are you located in the world - just a general area - US (what state) or what Country?

What do you feed?
Is grit available?

Stretching the neck, water coming back out of the beak and wheezing - I would check her crop first thing in the morning before she has had anything to eat/drink. It should be empty.

Crop issues is the first thing that comes to mind with the symptoms you describe.

I live in Thailand (Very hot country) and I feed them with normal chicken feed (around 18% protein) and my coop is on a rough sand so grit is kinda always available . I use to try to check their crop but I'm not so sure about it. It seem squishy and firmy.

Not all sand is created equal or suitable as grit.
I would revisit check her crop - if it's squishy and firm in the morning before she's had anything to eat/drink - that likely is the cause of the symptoms you are seeing.
