I had two black rocks die over the past two days. One of the hens were sitting on the corpse but it almost looked like the hen was sad. At 13 weeks old, I have no idea why they died. I have ideas but don't really know. There were no peck marks, all the hens have been together since they hatched. There are no signs of cannibalism or anything related to that. No signs of predator involvement. Just two birds dead no explanation. It has been really hot. They have shade and plenty of water. May have been heat related I think as its the only thing I cannot rule out other than some freak medical condition. These birds are in great condition.
