Wondering how I have two hens in two days missing without a trace?? Me an my husband had a total of 11 Rhode Island reds...we do free range due to having 3 acres we have our dogs that guard but usually let dogs in at night an out randomly....Two of my girls have gone missing we did a walk search of the entire property yesterday...no evadence of an air attack no feathers no struggle an no weird noises at night...They roost on our back deck in boxes an on patio furniture....until we get a coop built ..we have decide to do so now have never had a problem with this...one went missing last night at some
Point cause I had ten fed this morning did head count one is no where to be found??? I’m wondering if they are wandering off to neighbors that also have free range chickens or is something else going on ??? An suggestions I am going to leave my German shepherd out tonight for a night patrol just to see ...we do have two roosters an they are good about warning of a predator an they have not gone off so it’s kinda suspicious.....Trisha
