Seven dead hens within 4 hours, not attacked. UPDATE: Teflon Poisoning!

I think I missed what breed(s) they are. They sure look perfect for him!
She said they were a mix of Black Leghorn, Lakenvelder and Phoenix. I don't see the Phoenix in them, I was expecting much more of a game bird look, larger tail feathers, etc.
 
View attachment 1236049 There’s a lot of dust in the air as there were a lot of feathers flapping just before I got this. They’re definitely faster than my old girls. Here is Sir Lane standing tall among them though- I think he’s a happy rooster today. I’m going to give them an hour to chill out, then I’m bringing fresh water and a treat before lights out. They’re so active I don’t dare leave a warming lamp on overnight like I did before. One already laid an egg on the way home too!

Aww....they look fabulous!! And @Wyorp Rock is so right, he DOES look quite satisfied!!! :-)

Great job!!!
 
Did they come from a heated barn? If not I wouldn't worry too much there's enough to cuddle up.

X2 If they came from a non heated barn, do not add heat. All the heat from these birds together could melt an iceburg.
