Two nights ago, I went out to find my only Buff Brahma dead under the roosts. She was two years old(so she didnt die of old age..). We had assumed she just gotten egg bound or something, and passed away and fell off the roosts.
I keep very close tabs on this gal because she was one of the firsts we ever got. and Because she was a 'one and only'. she had no symptoms, acting normal then dead
Tonight, yet another dead hen. This time a cinnamon queen was dead in a nest box. we have several cinnamon queens and I dont keep extra close eye on every one of them, but i do a general check to make sure nobody is lethargic, walking funny, acting strange ect..
they both died of the same thing i believe.
We just recently bought some nutrena feed on the 17th and gave them that the 20th. we went from layer 16 crumble to that. I dont think that has anything to do with it but i am letting you all know.
cocci? egg bound? what could this be?
