Quote: Hawks are not weak at all. I know of twice I have seen a rooster win against a hawk. I have never seen, heard or dreamt my rooster could kill a Red Tailed Hawk. They are very large hawks. I will say, I knew my rooster was a tough young bird when he was not even a year old and fought an...

Checked on Smoke this evening after work, and he is looking great. He only has a cut on one toe, and some cuts on his comb. Here he is tonight with his hens.

Turned the hawk in to a friend of mine who is a FWO, said it was a Red Tailed hawk, adult and was the biggest he has seen. He did have to take the hawk since it is unlwaful to possess a bird of prey and he may have to send it to the state for them to look at. Checked on Smoke this am, and he is...

Quote: Yes, lucky shot to his right eye and into his brain I believe. Just proud of him for protecting his girls.

Thanks, I could not believe how big he was when I seen him. I knew other roosters would not bother his group of hens, but the hawk's wing span was 4' 2''. Smoke spurred him through one of his eyes. He will stand and face any hawks and never go after any hens. Big mistake on his part. Thanks for...

My rooster Smoke killed a hawk today. There are always hawks here in South Florida. My rooster always challenges hawks when they come around. My neighber called me when it happened and was worried about my rooster. By the time he went to help, the hawk was down. The hawk tried to get one of his...

Comb, leg color, muffs, beards mean nothing. I have a EE named Cindy Lopper for the fact she has a straight comb like a leghorn and lays the prettist blue/green egg. I have EE hens (2) that lay dark brown eggs and they have blue slate legs, beards, muffs, and pea combs. I have a EE that has a...
