I'm certain that they are hidden somewhere but if something else didn't get them by now is the question.

If it was dogs, you may luck out and find them. Search around all day, call out, have treats ready. Look inside thick brush, thick low bushes, under the edges of buildings, up in pine trees. Good luck, I hope you find some of your girls.
My husband thinks that coyotes may have hauled off with the nine I can't find to feed pups but would they leave eight behind? Cause I found and buried eight and have one injured with bite marks on her back.
I have not. I've looked everywhere and under everything. Walked the neighbors field also. No sign of anything.
We have electric netting, but of course not hooked up.My husband also thought that about them making multiple trips. We live about a quarter mile from a woods behind us.
I'm also considering a LGD. We may eventually have more animals than chickens and a dog would be handy for that.
Coyotes can get interrupted. They kill as many as they can, and then start retrieving the bodies. If something happens in that process, they'll leave a bunch behind. That something could be the family going outside and discovering the birds.I would think coyotes would keep retrieving and take everything back to the den. A dog/s would not bother, it was just for sport.
If yo go looking for chickens, check around foundations, under old equipment, someplace no bigger than a rabbit escape.I once found my pair of Millie
fleurs under the edge of my cow barn in a place so small, they needed help to get out.
