Found one dead chicken yesterday and one this evening. Both were sitting on eggs and only the stomach was eaten out.This seems to be happening during the day.Any ideas what's doing it?

Dog.

I have a six foot privacy fence and 4 dogs that would freak out if a Dog was around.I was thinking maybe a cat?

Cats usually just play with stuff to death, unless they are feral, and feral cats don't like people.... I would set out a live trap with the dead chicken in it. The criminal always returns to the scene of the crime.

That's a great idea.Do you think the other chickens will go after the dead one in the trap?
