A sad morning...went out to let our 3 hens outside to do some free-ranging only to find Mayflower, our BR -- 1 year and 1 month old, dead upstairs in the coop. I examined her -- no peck marks, no feathers pulled out. We have great neighbors and don't have any problems with predators. She laid Sunday afternoon and was finishing up with molting.
I did some reading in other threads that some deaths are mysteries; it looks like this is one of those.
It still hurts to lose our favorite girl. She loved to sit in our laps and perch on our shoulders.
