I don't know why it seems my chickens are dying now. 2 of them died in the last couple of months from bloody bums---they weren't laying and squatted down and overall just didn't want to move---not even for food or water! Now I have a leghorn this morning that is doing the same thing, just no...

First, thanks for reading! We have 2 chickens from 2010 raising, (a leghorn and a RIR) and then 4 from raising in 2011 (2 leghorns, 2 black australorps), and even though ALL LAY, they are all (still) SMALL eggs!!!! We have "adopted" 4 other chickens from freecycle.org and "saved" them, and I...

I have a 12 month old (just barely) RIR with another RIR and 2 LH. They are all the same age and grew up together. This one RIR is NOT laying now for over a month, and I am pretty sure it is not stress, food, heat or anything else. These hens are treated well! BUT I know they take a...
