I had 3 attacked by hawks recently. One was gone just feathers, another severely injured the 3rd lost its tail feathers but otherwise ok.

I mean honestly she could just be hiding too. I had one that managed to hide under the fridge in the garage for nearly 12 hours before we found her. But that was years go. It's just hard to say hopefully she will be pt running with the flock in the morning and you'll just need to look for her hiding spot

I recently lost all five of my ducks in one night. No feathers no sign of what happened. Don't know if it was a animal or a human

Glad you found her. I know how stressful it can be. I live a ways out side te city so unfortunately I have had to learn to accept the risk

One night I freak out. I had just introduced my 2mo chicks in with the older hens. The run area is very big, but of course night time comes, they don't know how to go into the coop. So daily, I have to go out and manually put them inside. No biggie.... So on the 2nd night, I'm doing a headcount amd I'm missing one........ Oo ooh I was in a fuss. It was almost pitch dark outside. Sure enough, looked around hard and finally found her all cuddled up in a little hole in the ground. (Not inside a hole, just a big indent in the ground). I could have stepped on her of I didn't see her!
