Hawks

[mammasue]

Help! We just had 3 massive hawks move onto our property and I’m afraid to let my chickens out in the evenings even tho I sit with them. My chickens separate when let out I have older hen who likes to be alone so it’s hard to watch her and the bigger group at the same time! What can I do?

Can you build a covered run?

They have small run they are in during the day but i take cheezit for a walk every day she stays right by me but the 6 teenagers don’t so I hate to have to stop taking her out she waits for me every day lol. I know you can’t kill the hawks but I just wanna scare them away

Few things work, you have to keep them under cover until the birds move on.
