Oh noooooo!! Poor Bella! I hope she pulls through!

What type of predator? Do u know?

Rather a fox or a dog. Think its the farmers dogs as none of the girls were taken. Just injured

I HAVE A ROOSTER! I heard my first cockadoodledo this morning. As soon as I let them out he stopped they are going on 6 months. I'm pretty sure my buffs are girls but I just wanted to see if anyone could say for sure.

You are probably right a fox would have most defiantly killed and ate her. I'd kill that dog. Attacking animals on your land, ya that would be a dead dog. Don't get me wrong I love dogs but have no use for ones that don't know there place and kill for fun.

I would say hen. They look just like my hatchery hens.

Awesome! Thank you! The ones waddle is Bigger and redder then the others which is why I was kinda questioning it. They are my favorites, I hope you are right.

My 2 are the same age, but one has a redder comb and more developed waddles. She's DEFINATELY a girl though!
Same thing with My 2 EEs

BELLA UPDATE: I wasn't supposed to be going up till 9 tonight as no one could take me, but I really wanted to go so on the way home from college I asked tole taxi to stop on the side of the road and I got out and walked to the hens as they weren't far from there. I went to see Bella and her wound is deeper than I originally thought. She was eating mealworms when I give them and when I picked her up she went mental and nearly escaped from my hands! I'm sorry I couldn't get a better pic but I had her in one hand and my phone in the other. Mams getting them sterri strips for tonight but I'm not sure if they will work on something so deep. BTW her wound is bigger, her feathers are just covering the other half of it
