    Could a cat snatch a 4 week old chick without any evidence?

    I am missing one of my 4 week old baby chicks. It is literally like she disappeared out of thin air. There is ZERO evidence of a scuffle, not even 1 feather on the ground around coop, or the rest of the yard, or even the neighborhood! We have scoured every shrub/tree/fence/etc. Does this seem...

    Hello all, am NEW to BYC and am planning out my coop/run. The walk-in run and elevated coop will be on cement.
