Today I went outside to gather the eggs from my chickens and as I was walking I noticed a odd shaped behind the bushes....
When i went to investigate, I saw that it was one of my chickens
The head was missing and the neck all that was left was the actual body and there was a huge hole where the killer had eaten the insides of the chicken.. Im suspecting that it was a hawk, since we have had quite a few circling around the house...but does a hawk only eat the head and the insides? Also there was a mess of feathers around the area...Am i guessing correctly that it is a hawk?
