I Went To The Light Brahmas

[trapper52]

I ordered 30 hens & 3 roosters & 7 of them have died after they turned 3 months old i would go in the morning to feed them & i would have a dead one & then it may have been a week & i had another dead one & this went on till i had lost 7 & it's been a while since any have died the thing i dont understand they were eating good & crinking water & they were very active with the others & boom i started to lose them one by one I have built a brand new hen house & just as soon as i can afford another Digital Camera i will post pics of my new Pen & Hen house does any one have a idea as to what is going on with my Light Brahmas I REALLY DO NOT WANT TO LOSE ANOTHER ONE OF MY BELOVED LIGHT BRAHMAS . Oh i ordered them from Cackle Hatchery on the 3rd of June & they arrived on the 20th of June

You might want to post in this section if you haven't already https://www.backyardchickens.com/f/10/emergencies-diseases-injuries-and-cures
Provide as much detail as possible as to their food, water, living area, and condition of both live and deceased birds. Hope you get some answers.

Sorry for your losses. Find a vet to consult with and be sure to feed them food that's appropriate for their age.
