Coon or Fox, Help identify this scat

So what does boiling the trap do?

Boiling the trap removes oils from the trap that were collected during the construction process. After boiling the trap is hung outside to get a coat of rust on it. After four or five days the trap is then dipped in hot wax (trap must have no moisture on it) and then hung to dry. Rubber gloves are used when handling the trap to keep human scent off. More critical with traps used for yote and fox. Coons do not tend to be as affected by human scent!!

I agree with Kazfam

I hate for my first post on here to be on this topic, but Monday morning between 8:30-10am something took our 3 month old rooster. We let our chickens free range during the day, and lately since it's been so hot, they've been hanging out in the shade at the edge of the woods. I was outside with the chickens until about 8:30am, and we noticed the rooster missing around 10am. After we noticed the rooster wasn't with the rest of the chickens, I walked down through the woods and found where whatever grabbed him stopped to eat him. There wasn't anything left except for a bunch of feathers and this pile of poop with whole corn in it. Any ideas as to whether this is a coon or fox?

We've been afraid to let the rest of the chickens out the last two days and have been keeping them in their run.

Could it be chicken poop? Expelled during attack?
[sorry...kinda gross]

Have seen chicken poop like that.

Any prints?

Sure looks like chicken poop to me.......stepbond, do you feed your chickens corn?
