Hi Eddy,
It is advisable to contact the Veterinary personel for assistance.What I know is that there is a vaccination regime for poultry which poultry farmers follow .This coupled with good management practises will reduce mortality greatly.Also post mortem examination needs to be carried out on the dead birds to ascertain the cause of death.It is the post mortem results together with the signs found in the sick chicken that will give you the right diagnosis and therefore the right treatment.
So like I said you need to see the Vet.The Vet will also help solve the laying problem.
