Today I was sitting on my porch letting the girls free range when 2 mourning doves sitting on a brick wall sounded an alarm call the girls booked it to hide under a tree, knowing I live in the Arizona desert and hawks are common I immediately knew It was a hawk. I screamed to scare away the hawk and it flew away without taking any chickens.
So my Question is, if one of my girls are grabbed by a hawk, will she try and break free and attack the hawk? I know chickens are very good at running and changing directions but will they still defend themselves if grabbed by a hawk? Thanks!
