We've gone from 23 hens to 16 in about a week. Lost four in one day. This is happening in broad daylight, not at night, and sometimes in our yard! Once we found feathers everywhere and a mostly eaten chicken, on the day we lost four. They are free range.
I'm thinking bobcat. Any ideas as to what would be doing this and how to protect the chickens?
