Unknown death

[LJM20]

One of my 10 week old chicks died last night and I don't know why. I have 3 Orpingtons and 3 Americanas. They were all in the roost, no sign of predator. She seemed perfectly fine yesterday. Any thoughts? Thank you!

Hi there. I'm sorry you lost a chick! There are many different things that could have caused it and the only way to know for sure is to send the bird for necropsy.
