No other animals there, safe co-op. Have just older chickens to blame. I know animals are swift in their kind of justice. But it hurts . Take all kinds of pains to do it right , then bang. Oh well must go on, and hope for the best. Thank you all.
Yes chicks had a safe place to hide. This happened, all at once, no pecking nothing wrong , thought I had it made. Come in from work ,there it was dead still slightly moving legs. Blood from the head , neck. Just about cried. No one around it.
Hi I just lost a 8 week old chick to older hens. I had 6 older hens, put them with my 15 iso browns ,p8 weeks old. Large chicken house and run. Killed a 8week old in about 4 days. I let my older hens out free range . Won't let them in till younger chicks grow up.
