Been dealing with hawk attacks. Lost 3 ducks.
Deconstructed the Cayuga pen and made a covered shelter.

Once they get a bird they just keep coming back. Hawks are a pain!

Sorry to hear about your losses, Shaw, but that is an impressive shelter! Way to respond to the threat. Hopefully all your webfeets are safe now.

Nice work on the pens. Predators can be a royal pain to deal with.

I still have Tutu the old RIR hen and Blondie but that's all. Blondie even laid an egg today and didn't eat it.

You've seen my place and all the trees and house around the chicken yard seem to keep the hawks out because they don't have room to fly in and get back out. But I've seen them not too far away where they have a clear shot at a mouse or rat they are very fast.

Yes they are! (Fast) And they love them some baby chicks.
