Sorry, I meant that his crop was like big? like a little bulging out?Your chick is lonely and depressed because chickens are meant to be flock birds. Furthermore, you do no have a brooder, and the chick is very cold.
What do you mean by the chick developed a crop? All chickens are hatched with their crop, otherwise they would not be able to properly digest their food.
There will not be a difference in the chick's behavior unless you let it become a house chicken and stay with you forever, but the chick will always be lonely, depressed, and frightened, unless it is one of the few that become accustomed to the house. My suggestion is to rehome your chick to a person who has other chickens.
I don’t know how to re-home him. None of this was planned. My brother just didn’t want to see the chick die so he took him but we want what’s best for the chick. How do we rehome him?
