My husband checked on our three hens this morning (they're seven months old), and everything seemed fine. This evening, Rose, our Red Star, was immobile (though still alive), her body was cold and her eyes were white very strange. It looked like she never had eyeballs to begin with almost like sockets, but she didn't look pecked. We live in a cold climate, but their coop is in our barn, so it is sheltered from the elements. We also have a light that we leave on to keep them warm and a heated water bowl for the hens. My husband thinks she may have been electrocuted. Is this possible? Our other two hens are fine. Rose doesn't look like she'll make it through the night. Is there anything we can do? Thank you so much for any help you can provide.
