wheezing?

[mamamage]

is it normal for a rooster to wheeze when he's done crowing? like he does a huge crow and then breathes back in and it sounds like a wheeze. he's been crowing a while and i've never noticed it, but i just may have missed it..? he seems fine though.

Some do it, so as long as they always have done it I wouldn't worry.

Yes! Freaked me out the first time I heard it...came on here, searched around and found it's normal...it still kind of amazes me.
