I purchased a hen on Sunday and had her in quarantine. She steadily downgraded from the time I brought her home. Yesterday while checking on her I heard a nasty cough sound. She sounded as if she had some sort of foam in her throat. She has since been put down. She also seemed to have had some blood in her stools. She quit eating and seemed to be struggling to breathe. She also appeared almost hen pecked. A lot of her back feathering was missing as well. Any thoughts as to what this could've been and if it could be contagious. I have a rooster that got close to her a couple of times even though she was in quarantine and his crow is now sounding strange, almost hoarse.
