So my beautiful, huge lavender Orpington 3 yr old rooster disappeared from the back yard while husband was fifty feet away from the free ranging birds, on the side of the house. Besides a few feathers not a clue as to the predator. D suddenly heard a racket and went running to the chicken yard to find very disturbed chickens and a few lavender down feathers. It was 4 pm. It seems too early for Coyote but no pile of feathers like from a hawk. There seemed to be somewhat of a trail of feathers into the forest but they were 12 feet apart so it may be an imagined trail. What do you think got my big boy?
