I have 16 free range chickens 2 roosters and 14 hens. I have never had problems with hawks till today. I went out to check on chickens and I could hear a hawk in the wood line I could not see it as we have woods all around us. I did a head count and every one was here so I stayed out side to keep a eye one the sky. A few minutes latter I seen one hawk flying over but could still hear one in the woods. I put chicken back in coop (boy was they mad). My ? Is do hawks call other hawks when they find food? And how can I keep them away? I have 3 dogs that stay with the chickens all day. I read the dog's will help but I don't think the dogs would do anything if one did get a chicken. Any help would be great as I don't want to keep them put up all day they love come out side. Thanks
