I feel your pain. My rooster Cupid got taken by a very large owl. Along with my guineas, my cat, and several neighbor cats. Happened right in front of the neighbors, so no question about the culprit. :'( I was not able to hatch any babies before losing Cupid, so my lovely hens are twiddling their thumbs until I find them a new rooster. They are threatening to sue me over loss of free ranging rights.Not been a happy spring for me. Lost my rooster, Cassius, to a fox in the middle of the day. She has three kits, and he died thwarting her hungry efforts. All my hens are now locked in the big pen, which they're not pleased about. They got very spoiled running about free, but they can't be out until we deal with the fox family. Let a little serama girl hatch two super-cute Cubalaya babies-one of which I'm hoping will be a pretty wheaten hen. Have a rooster in the other group with some "mutts." Kinda regrouping with the Cubalayas, and will be getting a new rooster soon.
