Another chicken died tonight.. This is a major red flag. Her comb was purple, but other than that nothing was off.. Im really starting to get concerned. :he

Oh my. Did you consider doing an autopsy? I did one on the last chicken that died on me. FINE at 6 PM, DEAD at 6:30 PM. Turned out she had fatty liver disease, she was only 14 months old. Nothing one can do about FLD and there are no obvious symptoms near as I can tell. She had laid an egg 2 days before.
