Almost Self-Reliant
I noticed today that one of my hens is missing a bunch of feathers on the back of her neck. They look like they are broken off, like maybe a dog got ahold of her & came away with some feathers. But there is no sign of a perimeter breach, and all of the other chickens are fine. Doesn't look like it's rooster induced, and this isn't one of our chickens who likes to jump the fence. Which leaves me with a hawk. Does this sound like something a hawk or other bird of prey might do? The hen is fine, but DH & I are just puzzling over what might have happened.
