Title: Sudden Chicken Death
Post by: valr on June 29, 2010, 10:44:09 pm

One of my plymouth rock bantams (6 months old) died the other day. She was absolutely fine - no signs of illness - then seems to have died in her sleep. I found her jammed down the back of the roosting bars. All the others are fine.
"One of those things"?? ??? :-[
