Our green cheek got a hold of an un-popped popcorn seed and started choking. She is okay now, breathing and moving okay. Will she be able to digest the corn kernel? I think she accidentally swallowed it whole.

Uh-o. Definitely worth at least calling the vet to ask, but I wouldn't see it being a big deal. I would imagine it would just pass on through, but you might want to line the cage in clean paper and keep an 'eye out' for it to come out the other end to be safe;)
