Crop was broken into but likely empty by time bird taken (2 to 3 AM). Bird still a little warm when picked up. Either predator was small / juvenile not motivated to cleanup. Closer inspection of victum does not support barred or great horned owl. No talon marks. Latter would have been able to carry pullet away. Pullet killed by bite(s) to neck but vertebrate are intact. Perp consumed feathers as well. I am think an oppossum will be captured tonight. If so a trap will not be needed since even adults easy to catch by hand.
