Hey all, just had something get in and kill some of my chickens. We have fox, coon and skunk in the area. I don't think it was skunk. It lifted up the wire on the edge of the pen and got it, after doing a little digging. All the chickens that it killed have one leg bitten off cleanly at the hip joint, and no other bite marks. One has its guts pulled out a little where the leg is missing. The wire wasn't torn, just unstapled. No tracks, no scat, no fur. My neighbor is having coons eating his catfood, and there was a fox family out here this winter, and we've seen them this Spring. I want to say coon, what do all think?
