My husband went down to check on our chickens, we have four total, and one of the road island reds was dead
. She was fine yesterday, even laid an egg. He said there was a small area on her belly that had no feathers-probably about the size of an egg or a little bigger. We didn't notice this yesterday when we saw her. He found her bedded down on the ground under the ramp that goes up into the coop, so this belly area wasn't exposed after she died. I am scared that the rest of my chickens are going to die, and also sad
anyone have any thoughts on how I should proceed? What could have been going on with her? How I should care for the rest of the chickens? I have only had them for a year so I am still new to this. Thanks in advance for any insight
