IMO having good roosters also helps... I've had hawks come over and the roos sound off with a grumbly growly sound, everyone scatters to shelter. the couple hawks who HAVE come down to investigate further have been attacked by the roos. usually once the hawk is on the ground, but I had one dorking roo go airborne after a swooping hawk. Junior: 1 Hawk: 0

don't know what kind the hawk was but he was headed for one of my silver grey dorking girls. and they are NOT small...

Uggghhh!!! While we were gone our neighbors dog got out and attacked my show bantam!!! She is all messed up and limping. She was just getting over her broody molt, too! I have a show to attend in October and I'm worried she won't be ready by then!

if I remember, it takes 6-7 weeks for the long feathers to grow out completely...

Even for a Cochin bantam? She has a small scrape on her, too.
