    My chicken just died.... any cause for concern?

    My chicken just died.... any cause for concern?

    I forgot to say... My main concern is my other 6. They all look fine and seem very healthy. Do you think it could have been the egg laying process gone bad and caused some kind of internal problems??

    Americanas? Anyone seen a black and white one?

    Yes, Well put! I am very new to this and did not know much about the breed. I am mainly looking for excellent layers so I don't really care if they are purebred, mutts or whatever. I just want lots of nice big eggs. Although I would love a roo, I cannot have one because law here says no roos...
