So, I'm new to all of this (just passed the 1 year anniversary of getting my first batch of chicks) and today I lost one of girls. I'm hoping for help with diagnosing a cause because this seems out of nowhere. When I left for work this morning my light Brahma was fine but I came home to find her dead and stiff in the nest box. Not a mark on her (at least not that I saw), and I have no idea what happened. We had a raccoon attack a week or 2 back, and some of the others got scratched up a little so I've been keeping more of an eye on them to make sure they're ok and she was one of the least affected by that, so this is a big shock. Now I'm worried about my other 4 girls and want to make sure I do what I can to keep from loosing any more.
Any ideas? (I have photos of the body if that might help?)
