    Cure for chickens with stuffy, runny, noses?

    What kills and leaves the heads?

    It is such a shock to find them in this state. I am so sorry for your loss. Most of us have been through this before and it is never easy.

    What kills and leaves the heads?

    I have had a raccoon and a skunk but they never hurt the hens, they just ate their food. The cats also never bothered the hens. I have heard about owls and other birds of prey doing this, leaving the heads.
