Hi!
Here is a thread concerning an one-year-old hen that died suddenly...
She was a Golden Cuckoo English Marans named Pierrette.
A very beautiful girl, with a very "Marans-ish" personality... but maybe a hybrid, since she had only laid cream-coloured eggs...?
But whatever...
So, this...
We are new chicken owners we’ve had hens for about 2 year but not had any health issues until our hen died yesterday & we wondered if we could get some wisdom from experienced chicken keepers. We woke up to one of our hens coming out of the coop looking sick. She had her head towards her chest...
I was shocked to see our silkie rooster we have had for only a year was dead in the grass today. He was healthy and lively only yesterday and seemed totally fine! No blood or signs of a fight or anything. Any ideas?
