[IamRainey]

So sorry! It must have been awful to watch.

Where are you? Any chance this is the virulent Newcastle Disease (vND) that's afflicting Los Angeles and Riverside Counties?

 

[Fluffnut]

Sounds like he was definitely choking- I’m so sorry!
Check around wherever you’re keeping them to make sure there’s nothing he was eating- you can look down his beak; if it was something like a candy wrapper you might be able to see it. It might have just been a piece of food but if it wasn’t you don’t want another chicken to find it and meet the same end. I’m so sorry <3

 

[FrostyWind]

I feed them Starter chick food (that feed that looks like Grain Mash)
I don't have them under any warm light, they stay in a box where it's cozy, well at least I think it's cozy cause I dont see them shivering in the night, they sit and sleep normal like all the baby chicks I have ever hand reared and are adults now.
Yea I have photos of them
