The parents just open their crops and kinda pump it to the squab. I dont think they could or would choke a chick. He is able to pull away at anytime. Must be something else going on there buddy. Check for canker in your breeder loft.

What do you feed the breeders? I think Velo99 has a good point.

The reason I asked is that has happened to me before and the squab was sick.

In my loft at least I try to not medicate the breeders while they are feeding young, I will try and do such if needed when they are just sitting on eggs. Sometimes the medication will have a ill affect on the young birds.
