Lost two of my smallest chicks today including my very favorite little Dutch bantam, which had previously gotten quite lucky. I am sick about it! I caught a glimpse of it leaving and under the tree it was perched in, bloody feathers, bird feces (presumably from the hawk) and some intestine. My dogs were inside when it happened or they wouldn't have allowed it to come near. I have been researching on here how to keep them away but I worry that in the interim it will be back. Now that it knows where they are, should I keep them and the ducklings in their coop unless I am watching until some time passes and/or modifications can be made?
