First Death!

I think that coop might have something wrong with it. So I don’t know if the hens should sleep in this one until we find a problem.

She was my only white egg layer.

Also, I just found a giant spider in the coop.This may have killed her. I don’t know what type of spider it is but it’s really big.

It is unlikely, but if you post a pic of the spider someone could probably identify it for you

It was a really pale yellow. So I’m thinking yellow sac spider.

I'd have a heart attack seeing that thing. Sorry about your little one. It's never easy.

It really isn’t...
Also I already killed it.
