My 7 month old leghorn has been laying for about a week or two now. My husband couldn't find her this morning and found her brooding 7 eggs. Sneaky girl! Anyways, she's the leader of my flock and is usually the first to the food (besides the Ducks of course) and she didn't come running today. She isn't the type to let anybody handle her but he was able to pick her up and move her close to the food and water, and when he came back out she hadn't moved. The ducks even decided to take advantage a bully her. He brought her inside and she was extremely lethargic and basically unresponsive to anything that would bother a healthy bird. She passed a bit ago now and I haven't got a clue what in the world is going on/what happened! We haven't changed anything. She gets layer food. They have free reign of the yard during the day, but there isn't anything for her to get into. She was perfectly fine and herself yesterday. I've scowered the internet but I can't find anything that matches what just happened, and so fast?! Any thoughts? Any similar experiences? We're new to this, so any help would be much appreciated.
TYIA!
