Not sure how, but

I’m not sure how this happened but I found this in my silkies chicken coop today. No silkies were injured. The predator was just laying exactly like this cold and dead. I highly doubt the silkies killed it And I’m assuming it killed itself, but luckily none got injured.

It could have gotten caught in the netting. I found a hawk trapped between my run and fence once, panicking and with it’s wings at odd angles. I am sure if I hadn’t freed it it would have died.

This happened to a friend once. We found that a hawk had gotten through the netting somehow and must have killed a chicken but the hawk was also dead. It might have just gotten stuck and was left there for too long?

Got in, couldn't get out, panicked, killed itself trying to escape?
