Well, My young IL Roo get's coo-dos today... Some migrating Red Tail hawk's decided to stop at my place for lunch on their way by. Roo scurried his girls to safety and drew the hawks attention away from them, then hid under a wheel barrel. I showed the hawk the door and they all went on their merry way. Word in the bird world is this restaurant is closed.:yesss:

I like when the crows are around cause they'll chase off the hawks. But learned today that the chickens chase off the crows.:idunno

We normally have about a half dozen Red Tail, and a couple little Hawks around here, but as these guys are migrating from up north, I'm seeing 10-40 per day. Do owls migrate? Wondering what else that likes chicken might be passing buy on their way south.:oops:

Most owls won't take a chicken. Not a standard full size one anyway. Owls are most active at dusk and dawn or through the night. Mating season they are more likely to be put in the day.

The Barred Rock 5 day old chick sleeps almost all the time!! The others are frolicking around and either she is standing still sleeeping or laying on her belly sleeping. I am afaid she is not going to make it, because she acts differently.
