Showing a quick video of what happens, unfortunately, to chicken owners. Animal attacks are all to common with chickens. Chickens will put a fight if they can see, but at night they're basically blind.
An Opossum squeezed under some wood to get into an empty pen. Right next to that empty pen I had a pen of chickens. The opossum grabbed a chicken leg and tried to pull it through a hole and couldn't get it through. This happened twice and both of those chickens died. On the third day the opossum was able to squeeze a chicken through a board and the ground. That's when I noticed a pile of feathers and a chicken missing. I put up some traps and caught him the next day.
Time to shore up these pens.
Here is a list of the most common predators to my chickens in order.
Dogs
Racoons
Opossum
Hawks
Coyotes
Fox
Skunks
Snakes
