could be heat related?????
I was thinking the same thing. It was an unusually hot day, but they have a lot of shade and I would one of the fatter chickens would be the first to go from the heat but everyone else was fine.
Maybe she ate a toad or a mushroom. Well a snake got to her the other day. And I was not feeling like doing a necropsy or the animal equivalent of one.
Then yesterday one of the other bantams had something like the flu, his face was pale and mucous was coming out of his mouth. Today he is surprisingly better he got his color back and no mucous. Could it be one of those viruses going around?
