Whats wrong with my chickens

[Leahsandora11]

About a week ago my rooster got sick and died, you can check my other threads for info, then a few days ago after he died another chicken started decreasing and she’s been sick. I checked for lice and mites and I can’t find anything. She died today, it look like she threw up, I knew she was going to die today so I had her wrapped up in the garage to keep her away from the other chickens. I have a picture of how She looked when I found her dead I won’t post it but if anyone needs to see I can post it. Does anyone know what’s wrong with them? Things that happen are they stop leaving the coop then stop eating a drinking unless I put them infront of it then they won’t walk or stand like when I found my hen she couldn’t stand at all like she was paralyzed and she couldn’t even hold her head up. I have a picture of her laying too. I can’t find out what’s wrong with them. I’m scared it’s going to spread and they are all going to die.

Tomorrow I’m going to clean the coop completely and hopefully that can help something

If you still have the hen that died today, refrigerate (don't freeze) the body and contact your state lab (list below in links) and have her necropsied. That is the only way to know for sure what happened and if it's something that could impact the rest of your birds. Sometimes birds die near together and it's just coincidence, but if you have something viral going on, then necropsy will tell you that. In many states it is not terribly expensive.

Do you know how much it would cost? They are my chickens and I’m not an adult and my parents won’t want to spend a lot of money on them so I’d have to pay for it

Call your state lab and ask. The phone call won't obligate you to anything. They will also give you instructions on how to ship (or deliver if you are close enough).
