    Attacked Chick with flayed back - Mama or Predator?

    Wow, prayers for the baby. Did you check the entire coop to make sure there is no possible way for a predator to get in? If there is no opening it may be the best thing to assume the mother did it since she has a history of injuring chicks.

    Any gender guesses?

    That's me whenever I see pics of chickens it's like "that one is cute, so is that one! Hmm, I should totally get these breeds, now how to convince dad?"

    Need help! I don't know what got them!

    Thanks for all you advice we found a small opening where the chicken wire goes across the top to meet the side of the fence, that and the space in the door are what we think the murderer used to get in. @Howard E, we think it was a raccoon also, or a possum, the fence isn't that high from ground...

    Does this look safe? Any flaws that you can see so I can fix them!

    You should get another hen, after you finish predator proofing of course

    Raccoon help! Please help settle an argument with my husband

    Shoot the coon! Eventually it will find a way in and you will spend the next day cleaning up dead chicken. If you don't want to shoot it, trap it and release it far away, if there is no law against it. Sorry didn't read the last post by folly

    Chicken with a bandage on leg

    Sorry for your loss, but I agree, I think then hen is the mans responsibility now, I like the idea of offering to take her to the vet, but don't get your hopes up.
