If I could do anything to befriend our crows I’d be indebted to this thread. My dream. Dog is technically a border heeler so has a bit more intensity/protectiveness than your average border collie. But he is not a LGD. This is correct haha I have no illusions!

We’ve got half of this down already. Dog reacts like a maniac when we say “who’s that” (it’s fun when we forget and are actually asking each other in earnest lol) but we can definitely generalize that command. Dog’s smart and always wanting a darn job anyway. Good tip!

Thanks for reply and your insight! Definitely had a sandy colored underbelly and larger sjze- bigger than a crow most definitely. I only caught the underbelly of this specific bird. In the area the only hawks I’ve ever seen have been light brown in color for what ever that’s worth. Our hen is...

This was helpful! And I’m sorry to hear about your hawk experiences. There’s some much information about this fairly unpredictable thing that I feel the more experiences I hear the better. Sparks ideas and gives me new eyes to see with. Appreciate it.

Thank you so much. Yes, in trying to be brief I didn’t detail- they have a fully covered and aproned run and a coop. Usually the run door is open all day and they go in and out as they roam the yard. Currently they are on run restrictions. In your reply you touched on someone else I didn’t...

Hi! This is my first post (been lurking since April when I started my flock! Hi all!) I know there are thousands of hawk posts (I’ve read most of them!) I have some specific-to-me questions for the community and am hoping it can provide me and anyone else lurking some insight to reduce risks...
