something wrong with 1 month old chick, it is behaving like something stuck in it's throat! Need help

It is a bit like puffing feather while falling sleepy.

Right, so you don't feel anything sharp like a fence staple or nail or screw in the crop, right?

Just open beak and look down the throat. You don't see blockage, scabs, mucus or anything odd.

How far down the throat ? should it try to make the throat straight ? or just open the beak and look down.. if just open the beak and look down ; it is fine , nothing (but won't see deep down with this)

I just checked again, i can felt some thing inside, no idea what is it.. may be the rice or minced garlic that i have forced down just now..

Please stop forcing things down it.

I have tagged a couple of our BYC experts, hopefully they will be on shortly to help. Please try to wait patiently until they come on. If your chick is choking, forcing more down its throat could kill it.

You could be forcing food down the wrong hole, into its lungs.

Hopefully the expert come soon. It is not sneezing food.. so i think it didn't goes to the lung.. that would be very noticeable...
