'Yawning' 7 week old rooster

[Gonzo]

I know its freaky! some of our babies do that too! I freaked out being the blonde that I am, LOL! I thought it was choking!

One of mine did this when they were little, and he ended up having an impacted crop. Not saying yours has any problems, but maybe he is just trying to settle things stuck in his crop.

Or, you will hear crowing soon!
