I have now found 2 dead about 6 1/2 months barred rocks def on their coop. One 2 weeks ago, nothing looked odd or off about her and then the other just today found in a nesting box. Nothing looks off about this one either. All new layers. We had 11 and now 9 and we are getting 8 eggs a day.
We have 3 roosters still one is marked and ready to be culled the other 2 we are watching to see who is going to be a good pick. Could hens die because of mean roosters? Trying to lay eggs? Not sure what is going on. Any help is appreciated.
