Hello,
Came home and found a backyard full of feathers and four of the hens with feathers ripped out of the backs. We have a small dog that has done this before but only to one bird and much worse and he doesn't leave the feathers around. There are no big birds around and it just doesn't seem like a coyote or other big predator would just rip feathers out and not just eat them. They are all eating and drinking fine. Walking seems to be fine. What should I do? Cull? Clean up/bandage? Thanks in advance.
