I lost one of my 1 yr old Cream Legbar hens yesterday.

She looked fine in the morning and then about mid-day I saw her in the corner of the coop. I thought that she was in line for a nest box. (I have a crazy CL mix broody in one box who is very protective and the other chickens won't go near her.) She looked zoned out like they do sometimes when they lay an egg but when I touched her she didn't run away like she normally would. I checked on her a little while later and she was in a nest box but not very responsive. So, I prepared a place in a container in the garage for her. (Space is limited with the chicks that I've hatched in the past 2 weeks.) When I went out to get her, she had passed away in the nest box. She had some yellow/white discharge below her vent but, before death had no nasal discharge, breathing problems, etc. I have to admit that I cried and I was not even that attached to her. I didn't even cry when we lost our first chicken a few months ago. It was just a bad day yesterday with all kinds of little things going wrong. Her death was just the culmination of my bad day. She is bagged, in the frig, and will be headed to Davis later this morning. Would someone please tell me how to do the postage? The last time I sent a bird in, Cheryl did the postage for me.

I'm so sorry. It's so hard to judge when & how much to intervene - especially in the middle of the crisis.
Know that your heart is in the right place & that you gave her a great life while she was here.
Learning as much as you can from her passing is a great way to honor her life too.

Here's a Fibro but with white feathers, my favorite! They're called--Royal Phuphan--



And the pure black fibro also a Royal Phuphan

Never heard of them. Very interesting...................Are they a project bird & if so from what cross? Are they LF or bantam?
Thanks

No they're not a project. They're large fowl.
