We looked but no tracks. The ones we found had bites at the base of the neck close to their wings.

OMG!! I am so SO sorry...I can only imagine. I have lost 3 to dogs....and something tore into our baby coop and one disappeared ( we thought 2 did, but one girl came back the next day). Look into racoon, or opossum. Get you a live trap (they run around 50 bucks) and you can set it up near the coop, then carry off whatever got in there. Put up your food at night so things aren't attracted by the smell. Those are the only two critters that I could imagine would eat through the wire. But, maybe a large dog could, which would have carried off the birds. The opossums and racoons sometimes leave more behind. Is there anything else you can tell us that you have since noticed? I am so sorry
I'd suspect a few large dogs tore it with their claws. although I've seen dogs actually CHEW through a chain link fenceWhat can chew through hardware cloth?
We have racoons, possums and a neighbor has seen coyotes. There were two holes the largest about the size of a volleyball. Also found fine black fur caught in the wire.
