    2 chickens dead this week, please help

    I'm new to raising chickens, and we've been fine up until this week. On Tuesday, we didn't spend as much time outside with the chickens as usual, but when I looked out my back window in the early evening I noticed one was dead.

    buff orpington 8ish weeks

    I'm new at this and from what I've been reading about cockerels v pullets, I'm left a little confused on our only buff orpington (mix-up at the store- we were supposed to have 6, but they sold us 5 of the wrong breed) since I don't have any same breed/age comparisons. I'm thinking boy because...
