Chicken bone: As long as he expelled the chicken bone he should be fine. You might want to keep him on a soft diet for a day or two if he complains of his throat being sore

Probably: I'm concerned that he swallowed the bone. If sharp it can puncture the GI tract. Please check in with your son's Pediatrician.
