Bought 3 POL pekins 2 weeks ago and bought them home. Today the girls got up and were pecking about. Noticed at lunchtime the smallest one was sitting still, eyes closed, wings drooped not looking good opening and shutting her beak. Put some water by her and went out. Came back a few hours later and she was dead. Yeterday she seemed fine - eating corn in the afternoon. She was the smallest and the lowest in the peaking order. But she wasnt being bullied - no blood on her, had wormed them and hen house brand new and have disinfected in.
Any ideas? could the others get it?
