I have a flock of fifteen chickens of different varieties. I have been letting them free range without any issues for the past year. I live in a large suburban neighborhood just outside of city limits, so most predators are not a concern. My backyard is fenced, and there are no holes in my fence.
But I went outside today and found the remains of the smallest member of my flock: my tiny porcelain d'uccle bantam...
As you can see, the carcass has been picked clean. Even the legs and head are missing... All that appears to remain are the wings.
Would it be possibly to identify what predator I am dealing with by this picture?
I'm going to miss my little bantam...
