Foxes, dogs, cats, Birds of Prey, snakes, some plants, lizards and rats probably would eat chicks if they were hungry enough
Chicks with PhD's
Quite a few species of birds love to eat caterpillars, or to feed them to their chicks.
The mother bird eats a worm and regurgitates the processed worm for the chicks to eat.
yes, the parent usually eats the food (worms or bugs) then they basically vomit into their chicks mouth.
Yolk is good food containing much of what a chick needs, it is after all what the chick grew from inside the egg.
The (Eurasian) Swift, Apus apus.
Chicks can lastfor 3 days after hatching without food, becausethey are still living off the yolks,but they usually eat before that.
Regurgitation is a normal act for parrots. It is how they feed their young. Parrots will regurgitate their partially digested food for their chicks.
Hawks, eagles, lizards, reptiles, coyotes, wolves, bears, cats; just to name a few.
Foxes, wolves, large dogs. Cats will eat chicks. Of course, should the chicken be dead, most things will eat it, e.g. maggots, crows, us.
possums kill the chicks, eggs and the bird. weasels introduced by people to kill rabbits also kill them. hedgehogs introduced, kill the chicks and eggs. pigs can also kill the bird and eats everything. rats and other species of rodents cant kill the birds but can injure them and destroy the eggs and chicks
Because.. In 1982, the salt concentration in Mono Lake was making it hard for Algae and Brine flies and these changes affected the California Gulls. Cayotes and Foxes would walk in and eats the eggs and chicks. Because the predators and the lack of food, the California gulls did not raise any chicks that year. hoped this helped! ( I had this in my science question I found this really hard!)
