Something else is going on. Animals don't die from a broken heart.
How old are your birds? Can you post pictures of them and their enclosure?
no symptoms for hen. she was vaccinated 2-months back. morning also i saw active. came for food. evidence in the small room and in her eyes proved it was accident. Rooster also vacinnated 2-months back, found active in morning. when he becomes ill, head down, I kept his head close to my ear and heard cold block breath.I read that sometimes when they have respiratory illnesses they drop their neck. Had that symptom with a hen, within a day she got really bad,so we gave her a short or ample spectrum antibiotics and a vaccine for the avian flu, Newcastle and can't remember the other one it included. She started to get better really quick, in two days she was up and running and now is completely healthy. Have you vaccinated your chickens and Roosters?
