Why is my rooster that's only a few months old ( same age as the others) drooling? Earlier I picked him up and a bunch of drooling or Slavia came out I don't know if he was eating right before I picked him up but I'm worried he is my favorite

Welcome To BYC

Could be you pressed the crop and food/water came out.
Was he stressed from being picked up, did you have to chase him?

Check his crop first thing in the morning before he's had anything to eat/drink - it should be empty. If it's not, then let us know.
 
Drooling can be caused by sour crop or an impaction of the crop. Kind of think of sour crop as acid reflux in humans, except the burning part.
