Well Louie earned his keep today. A hawk swooped in and out of nowhere attacked one of his Cinnamon Queens while she was free ranging, (not the "photo bomber" but the other who is always lagging behind). Louie spun around and attacked the hawk while it was on the ground and scared it off just as it was about to take the hen down. She lost some feathers but otherwise is no worse for wear. I'm really glad to have him around, and so is the hen. For a five month old roo he sure has figured it out.
