Is your roo able to lift his head to a crowing position? I'm asking because maybe he can't lift his head properly to swallow water and that's why it runs out of his mouth. Maybe he is having a throat problem - hoarseness??? etc. Have you treated him for lice???
 
Yes he can lift his head I have treated him for lice as of tonight I see NONE
