Hi...I'm in California desert. Not too many predators. We have crows and I've seen a small size hawk. But that's about it. If a hawk got it wouldn't there be feathers? body parts? That's why I'm thinking stray cat?

Missing Guinea? Noticed yesterday, that I'm missing one of my Guineas.I've walked around my fence...and nothing? No feathers/body ? Nothing? Tried calling and nothing? I had 5...They're around four months old, and are pretty good size. Could a stray cat have got it?...I'm puzzled because of it...

Hi...I saw this post, so I hope you don't mind me asking. I have a peahen that is sitting on 3 eggs...30 days was up on Aug 20th...give or take a day ....how long should I let her sit? I keep hoping one will hatch? Is there a way to tell if they are still alive?
