Welcome to BYC ! I replied twice to this one !

I had 4 birds killed by a red tailed hawk in a week last spring - all under a hawk net. I doubled up the net & that worked for a year. Then a month ago another kill. My husband chased it away, but it returned. It landed right on the net & looked for an opening it could fit through. I saw it in time before it could attack. It flew right out through the netting with no problem. All the hawk netting came down & right now they’re confined to a smaller safe pen while we rebuild the entire run. My town doesn’t allow roosters, so that solution won’t work. My opinion: hawk netting isn’t worth the $$.
