The Gold Laced Wyandotte was found dead within the chicken pen, by the fence line. Mostly like a raccoon attack. That leaves 2 functional adult hens (Black Australorp and Red Sex Link) and the broody Blue Laced Wyandotte. Thank goodness I have 5 standard pullets and a number of bantam girls growing up already. I will put hardware cloth over the section of fence that only has 2x4" openings. I knew that that was a weak point in their protection, and really should have taken care of it when I first set their pen up.
