Sudden Death!

Hello everyone,

Any ideas as to why a seemingly healthy chicken would drop dead in the coop just before dark. We found her when we went to close the door. She was out all day eating and foraging and then dead! Any ideas???? anyone????

sorry about your chicken. but they can just die. it could be any number of reasons why this happens. if the chicken appeared healthy at least you know it isnt some disease that will spread through the flock.

Can't really tell without a necropsy. Sorry about your loss.
