Woke up to two of my 5 week old chicks dead with gaping vents. I am not sure what happened. They are 2 of 15 in a brooder on my porch since the weather is warming up and they aren't needing a heat lamp. They've been on the porch for a little over a week and it's been fine. They get feed and water every day. Anyone have a clue? The puzzling part about it is that they didn't show any signs of a predator since usually a predator will bite off some part of them. Though, I didn't see any bite marks on them.
