Backyard Poultry Forum

I have noticed over the last couple of day I have a few crook chooks. One died today and the other walks around as she has lost her ability to walk in a straight line. I picked her up and she is really skinny and breast bone nothing on. I haven't had any troubles previously and the girls have been with me for about 2 years. They have always had fresh water and good food with scraps every morning and greet me each morning on the verandah. I do put Cider vinegar as well into water which they like as well. Just cant work out what is happening. The vent is fine not messy but did notice that one of the girls had look a blotted belly and was spongy feeling. Any help please would be appreciated. Thanks in advance
