Hawks :(

I too recently had a hawks take some out of my flock. Sorry to hear about yours. I just purchased a great Pyrenees dog. They are breed for livestock protection and hate hawks they will be a loving pet are great with children kind of a gentle giant. Hope that helps
 
The girls refused to come out of their coop yesterday and today. Figured they must have been scared by a predator. They finally came out a few minutes ago and when I looked out the window there was a gigantic hawk on top of their run and the girls scrambling to get back to the coop. Hopefully the hawk will learn soon enough that it can't get in and move on, otherwise these girls are never going to leave their shelter.
 
A hawk will likely set up a nest nearby if it finds a chicken coop. Only one sure way I have found out to take care of the problem. Relocate the offending predator to a place where it will do no harm to anyone.
 
I have recently lost multiple chickens to hawks also, including my favorite black silkie.

Until I found netting just for chickens and it works! The brand is called Hawk Stopper. The hawks aren't happy but I sure am. Take that hawks!
