Bee Swarm

[Muddy Fowl Farm]

Two days ago, 30 SEPT 21, there was a swarm of bees in our fenced in area for our chickens. The bees were all over the ground, bothering the chickens, hanging in the chicksaw... just really stressing the chickens out. We have 6 ISA Brown, 3 Silver Laced Wyandotte, and 3 Ameraucana. I found one Silver Laced dead yesterday morning and the other two Silver Laced dead this morning. No real sign of any critters getting in. Could it be a reaction to bee stings and their breed?

I'm so sorry! What a weird thing to happen! My sister lost a dog to bee stings, so I imagine it's just as possible with chickens.

So sorry for your loss. Hard to say what happened. If you have a camera put it up and see what is happening. Good luck...
