    What in the world happen??

    We live in the county. In the middle of nowhere! They are free range during the day, and we lock the coop up at night. No fence just a coop. We have lost 7 in the last year and a half. But nothing ever like this. From all the feathers we thought they were all dead. There is a dog who has...

    Four chickens gone

    Four chickens gone

    They are free range during the day. Cooped up at night. But the coop of course is always open during the day until dark.

    Four chickens gone

    No gaps. Thank you. I hope we figure this out too. I know we have coyotes, but never seen a hawk or an owl. I know that does not mean they are not there. Just very strange!

    Four chickens gone

    We leave them out during the day. The coop is an old dog lot, with chicken wire ran all the around and on the ground and on top. Golden reds and black sexlinks is what kind they are. I would say average size. Do you think they would take four at one time? That is what is so puzzling.

    Four chickens gone

    We lost four yesterday. Went to let them out this morning, and four were gone. No sign of anything in the coop. Checked around no feathers or any signs they were killed. But they were scared off before dark, never even went in last night .
