Hi everyone! This is my first post so here we go...
I lost 3 chickens this year and it looks like it's going to be a 4th. Each death was a few months apart. The symptoms are diarrhea and the hunched up sick position. They were all a little different but that was the common thread. 2 got culled and the 3rd just dropped dead. After the 3rd I thought maybe worms so I got dewormer and wormed the last 3. Now one of them has what I now call 'the death hunch'. I'm thinking bacterial infection? Has anyone else had this happen?
