Hi all. I have a old English hen that just hatched her first clutch about a month ago. I went out this morning to check the yard and found her dead in the box where she sets on the chicks at night. None of the 8 chicks were harmed in any way. She was on her back. No feathers missing or any marks or lesions on her body. No signs of sickness. I've raised game chickens for a long time and never had this happen. Wondering if anyone on here has any info or suggestions. Thanks for any replies
