Belle was a 2 month old red sex link. I free-range the chickens during the day. They have been so healthy. I saw her running today. The only visible things I saw wrong with her when I found her dead in the roost was an eye that was glazed over and her other eye was bloody. I suppose it could have been a predator, but it's unlikely. Are there poultry diseases or conditions that have those sysmtoms?
 
It could have been an the eye injury and shock that killed her.

I'm so sorry that happened! Do you think another chicken could have done it? The glaze over eye was probally caused from being dead for a bit.
