In the last month we have lost 4 one and a half year old silver laced Wyandotte chickens. They have gone about a week apart. We have cleaned out the coop and their run and replaced with new pine shavings. All watering devices have been scrubbed with bleach and refilled with clean water. We put a little Braggs vinegar in the water. Always have. All the chickens that have died are the younger ones and all same breed. All were vaccinated when I bought them as day old chicks. The older flock of light brahmas have not died and are doing fine. They all free range on our large acreage. The last chicken we found dead this morning was separated from the rest of the flock for the last two weeks. She was in her own coop sitting on eggs as she had gone broody. She was doing fine till she died this morning. These were all sudden deaths. No signs of pasty butt or over filled crop. None seemed sick till they were found dead. No blood. No nothing. We are now down to 13 hens and one rooster. I don't want to lose any more.
Does anyone have any ideas of what else I can do?
