Our wonderful Buff Orpington died suddenly last week... found her in the morning. She appeared healthy... eating etc. Even layed an egg the afternoon before she died.
She was large. She was hesitant to jump off a high roost she managed to fly to. I've heard of chickens damaging organs from...
Our 9 month old BP-Rock has laid 5 'Fart Eggs' in a row. She did some molting over the winter but has laid some normal eggs as well.
She appears very healthy and happy. Any ideas?
Our coop went up this past Spring/Summer here in Park Slope. Now home to 4 happy hens. (BPRock, EEgger, GL Wyandotte, & B Orp)
Any more BYC's in the neighborhood? Borough?
Would love to hear some stories.
