Morning, Last night we went up to the coup to feed/water and gather eggs. I opened the door and one of our girls lay dead on the floor. She was about a 1 1/2 yrs old. Quite a shock to us because all seem well the night before. The rest of the flock seems healthy but is there anything in particular I should be looking for that I might be missing. Should I completely reclean the coup as a precaution? I see no obvious signs to the cause of death, just trying to head off any further troubles . Thanks in advance for your input
 
Sudden deaths with no apparent symptoms are generally not the results of an infectious condition. Unless others start showing problems, I would not worry.
