What is the most common predator POLL

[GoldenSparrow]

I was wondering, What is the most common predator that takes/ kills/ harms your chickens?
I want to know what most people have problems with.

Thanks Everyone

Aside from dogs, which predator is a problem is going to differ by area.

Hawks first, free dogs second. We have both running free in abundance.

For me it was cars, had no choice but to put fences up.

If you dont mind me asking, did you ever lose one to a car?
Sometimes mine go near the road.

In the 2 years that I have been keeping chickens, every one of my loses have been due to cars, and this is a back road...when people throw the joke at me of why does the chicken cross the road, I tell them I do not know because mine never make it to the other side.
