They have a run with wire on top and they just stay in the run they keep getting attacked inside of the coop because right now we have 8 week old chicks I am coop training
So recently I have been losing a bunch of chickens
May-25 I lost my RIR velvet we believe a hawk took her
May-26 Then we lost our RIR rooster queso his head was taken off we believe by a raccoon

My rooster queso a RIR mix has gotten aggressive and I need to rehome him. I have thought to put him on facebook marketplace and market him as a non kid friendly rooster.i hate to have to get rid of him but after long thought and consideration he had to go I am afraid of my neighbors little ones...
Yeah I like to give them a lot of room but where the run is the grass doesn’t really grow and I like for them to get some grass once in a while and even know my neighbors little granddaughter love to feed it to them they still enjoy having a little bit of freedom I do make sure a watch them all...

I don’t know what I have been doing wrong I was really hoping that I was the problem not him we have had a bond since day one that’s why I can’t stand to part from him because he is way to special because I brought him home from my school because we raised them and I would feel like a...
I would but I can’t part with him I know it my fault for be a “scaredy cat” because he has attacked me so many time that he has made me grow a fear I am “too soft” to not do anything about it
