Well, even the larger hawks here are smaller than the bald eagles ... we do sit out with them when we let them out, so that ought to discourage raiding. In a couple years - if things go as planned! - my capons should be a bit too big to carry off.I had two full grown capons carried off by hawks.
I suppose the unanswered question is: what breed(s) and what size were those full grown capons?
