Romeo wandered to my neighbor's (Connie) property one day and didn't return.  She found his remains on a walk one day.  He had apparently been attacked by a preditor.  I won't say it was a coyote as we have dogs that run in packs here.  Many dogs are dropped off and join up.  I really miss him and am attempting to find Juliette a partner.  She has been hanging out with the chickens.
