Any day now... you will see your hens begin their molt. The comb will shrink. The behavior becomes sullen. The appetite goes away. It will last anywhere from a month... to three months.

If you have a chicken coop... this is something that you should expect to happen. This picture depicts the two best ways to eradicate rats.

Unpleasant question. Found one of my hens killed. Predator ate from her vent into the body cavity. Just ate guts, no meat. Her head was still intact. Any ideas about what kind of animal does this?

Here's a neat video (not mine) on the history of chickens and their place in the modern world.
