I found evidence of at least 2 birds being eaten in my chicken yard,all that was left was the feet and feathers,and 1 short string of bowel.Not exactly sure when it happened the bodies were lying underneath dense over growth along a back fence in their yard.No maggots and alot of flies so seems like it was fairly fresh.What would eat the whole bird but leave the feet?Don't think it was a bop thought they would carry their meal off,seems like other predators would carry the bird somewhere else to eat but not sure.ANy thoughts?I have had them for about 3yrs and this is the first problem I have had.They are in a 6ft.fenced yard and the barn.The fence is cyclone heavy duty stuff.No evidence of something going under,there is an area by a gate that something could have gone through but they would have had to get into my dog yard which surrounds the chicken barn and yard.
