Deer like many other herbivores are opportunistic carnivores as well.

They will eat birds, mice, etc. So will cows.

Chickens?

They will eat Turkey polts and smaller chicks. Yes. Grown ones/adults? No. They’d be more likely to stamp or kick them to death. But a cow or deer will attack/bite and kill a young kitten, or puppy. Eat them, afterwards? No, probably not.
I have seen them eat carrion, things like dead rabbits, crows, and squirrels. They’re opportunistic feeders for those things. They don’t hunt them to eat them like predators will—but will enthusiastically eat another animal’s leftovers.

Uh no. Google that. They've even been caught on camera at the body farm eating human bones.
