Sick Hen: UPDATE: SHE'S DEAD! 7 hrs sick

[limabean]

I don't see any neck stretching or obvious gasping.

She's dead! I found her at 3:15 - 7 hours after I first saw that she was sick!! I'm still hoping for answers... Could this be something that the other chickens could have caught from her???

Awww...sorry you lost her. Although you just noticed her symptoms today, if her body weight was a lot less than your other girls, she's probably not been eating for days. It certainly doesn't have to be anything contagious - could be a failing organ. Again -

I am so sorry for your loss.

What do your other chickens poop look like?

 

[limabean]

THe other hens' poops seem to be normal. They are also all very perky and energetic.
