I don't even know how to describe the scene today. Our plane just landed when my daughter text me to call. I call to hear her sobbing uncontrollably, she had just driven home from school to find feathers everywhere. All, but two of my chickens all over our yard and our neighbors yard. An hour later, pulling up to the scene, was awful. They were everywhere, front, side, back and the neighbors. We are on 5 acres they have NEVER gone to the neighbors. My devastation and anger only increase as I walk up to find one after another, but NONE eaten or even torn apart. Some have a couple of puncture wounds, most have broken necks. My neighbor has dogs on invisible fences which have gotten lose before, but it's been awhile. My daughter was anxious for me to walk up their drive to see all of them (10) in their yard. They were all gone, went to the door, no answer. As we started to head back down, she pulled up and tried to say she heard a fox last night outside when her dogs were inside with her. We informed her my chickens were locked up until my daughter let them out before school. I asked where she put the bodies so I would know which ones were gone. She already had someone put the in the bottom of the trash can with a plastic bag of trash on top of them. I know I have no way to prove it was one or both of her dogs, but I just know it was. It's just so upsetting right now. I'm just numb, it was just pointless killing.
