Hawk or fox or other?

[Hands On Dad]

Lost 4/8 today. No blood, no bodies, just feathers. They were free ranging at the time. We have coons and hawks, but very very few foxes. The raccoons usually only come out at night. South Louisiana. Any ideas?

Any dogs around?

 

[scrambled please]

For me when hawks hit their are some feathers in one spot and one bird is gone, a fox seems to have the attach spot and if I look around I find more feathers scattered, foxes will take more than one bird, I've been told that's only when they have babies.

On 9 acres. Only dogs are mine and they are inside dogs.

No bodies.....fox(es) or coyote(s)...most birds of prey can't carry off a full sized chicken let alone 4 of them.
Could be domestic dogs too.

Thanks for the responses guys. Looks like I have a fox to deal with.

Well, if you have a forest nearby, a Goshawk can take a chicken. They can take ducks too.
