Fox attack! 12 chickens dead and abandoned.

Y

es. That's actually a typical fox MO. They leave them all and will come back for the carcasses as they need them. They may make a cursory effort to "bury" them, but it's usually just kicking a little dirt over them. An old farmer friend once left the carcasses and set out traps between them for a couple of days. He caught three!

Wow

I am so sorry about your beautiful birds. They were very lucky to have such a loving family to care for them. Hugs
