Dead Chick. Why?

[matthewschickens]

Hello!!

We just got our chicks from Murray McMurray and I have a question about one of our Silver Gray Dorkings:

We put her into the brooder with the others and she was doing fine. Running around and drinking a little. A few minutes after that we saw her laying down and after trying to get her suger water and get her warmer she died. We think that she was a runt but the fact that she went down so fast?

Thank you!!

Matthew

Probably the stress from shipping

Could stress kill her after she was playing?

Thanks!
