Over the last several weeks I've lost 3 pheasant hens. I had 6 hens and a rooster in a 4' X 12 foot coop. Ive found three of my hens dead in the coop at different times. The wire on the coop is 1/2" x 1/2" so I don't think anything is getting into the coops and killing the hens. I do suspect the rooster. Yesterday I found the 3rd hen, with her head badly damaged and bleeding.
I've raised pheasant (Ringneck) before and never remember the Roosters killing the hens.
Any thoughts?
