Unfortunately our roos are only about 4 months old and not even crowing yet. I saw a post from a couple of months ago about hawks and someone posted about setting up a martin colony. I am assuming this is a purple martin colony. Will this help any? Do martins chase hawks away?

Dad and I are wondering if there were any other birds that could help with alerting for hawks. Dad has had geese in the past and feels they are way too noisy. I was wondering would peafowl help as well?

How old will a rooster need to be before he will start alerting a flock? We have 4 roosters that are almost 4 months old, not crowing or even venturing outside much with the larger hens.
