Glad I came across this thread. I let my 4 chickens out this weekend to free range for the first time. They stayed pretty close to my barn where they live and didn't wander to far. I was working at the barn so I could keep a close eye on them. My house is frequented by at least two hawks on a fairly regular basis. So, as I was keeping an eye on the chickens, I kept my eyes trained on the sky. At one point I could only see two of the hens. I went looking for the other two and found them on the other side of the barn out of sight. When I got to that side and found them, there was a new cat that I had never seen before about 25 yds away staring at the hens. I was wondering if a cat could take away a full size hen and sounds like it can. Guess I better looking up as well as down for predators.
