All My Chickens..... a coop opera!

Sad news today... I lost Big Mak during the night... she didn’t come into the coop last evening and good thing I did a head count or she would have been left out in the rain! I found her just sitting so I went and got her and she didn’t flinch... she is usually a very touch me not/don’t come near me kinda gal... I placed her in one of the nest boxes and blocked it off so in the morning no one would harass her... well, she was dead when I went out.. no real signs of illness except for the fact that she had chronic diarrhea... since forever 🤷🏼‍♀️... but she has always been a very active chicken so I just thought that’s the way she was...
I am keeping everyone cooped up as the coop/run is the only dry place around! I am starting to wonder a bit that it may be the wet conditions that has caused something..... View attachment 2756661
I am so sorry @WhoDatChick . This cannot be easy. How old was she? :hugs :hugs :hugs

I am sorry,
Thank yall so much!
She was 2... they... Goosie, Lilly, and Mak were my second group of gals.. I think that it’s sort of strange that Lilly and Mak are my first two hens to die... ya know, being from the same group and all... so it’s just Goosie now... of course she still has the rest of the flock... but no longer has her “sisters”
