    Chick died unexpectedly! HELP!

    It sounds like mulberry heart. Their hearts don't grow large enough so when they get too big for the small heart they get raspy and then die suddenly. I have not found literature on this, but I was told about this by a 30 year chicken farmer.

    Help!! Cat scratched a chick
