Help me please! Is my Rooster dying?

[ChickenCanoe]

He diedyesterday

Sorry about that.
I hope you are sending him in to see what was ailing him and whether you need to take further precautions.

That’s really rough, I hope things get better.

Thanks, I’m worried about chickens, it might be category 4 or five, and we have to leave. I don’t know what to do!

 

[JadeFarms]

Gee, that sucks. It’s never easy losing a pet, but I’m sure you were a great owner, he probably felt like a little king. Hope you’re doing OK

Sorry that you lost him.

Thank you for all the support!

That's too bad. I understand with the hurricane and all.
I keep a box lined with Styrofoam available and some freezer packs. I call the vet school and they send me a FedEx label for shipping. I can either drop it off at the store a couple miles up the road or arrange a pick up at my house.
It is imperative that I know exactly what killed a bird. Guessing on cause of death isn't an option here. The breed is too rare and I have to be ready to nip any potential problems in the bud. Luckily, other than predation, the only deaths have been from cancer and heart attacks.
It looks like the storm may veer away from you. I imagine you'll still get a ton of rain no matter the track.
Best of luck in the coming week.
