My girl died last night
Yesterday afternoon I noticed that one of my girls had a bit of a snotty nose... She was still bright eyed, eating plenty and still very frisky. Just in case she was getting sick so as not to infect my other girls I separated her into a different coop away from the others. I went to check on her this morning very early and she was a long time dead. Is it more likely that she was stressed being apart from the rest of the flock that she died rather than what ever it was that was making her sick???? I feel so terrible that I might be responsible for her passing!!! Can a chicken even die that quickly from a respiratory disease or a cold??!!???
