Our chicken Speckle laid an egg in the nesting box then went about playing in the fenced coop area. After checking on her, we found her on her side on the nesting box again, dead. She was about three years old. We were thinking she might’ve died of a heart attack. Perhaps she didn’t feel good and went back up to the nesting box. We have no clue! The kids are devastated. Anybody ever have an experience like this before?
