I've seen both dog and coyote attacks do this, but just decapitating speaks of an animal that was not "trained" by their parents on how to eat what they kill, and is working solely on prey response (instictive kills), so I'd be inclined to think feral dog(s). Ask around and see of your neighbors have experienced similar attacks. Also, animal control can no doubt provide some insight.

∙ 14y agoWeasels are often the culprits when you find a headless chicken in you coop. These animals can utilize the smallest hole with which to gain access to the chicken coop and they always attack the warmest area of the hen which is the head. They often kill several birds feeding on the blood and softest organs.

Weasels, racoon's, cats, and large snakes will also do this. :(
