I'm currently fighting off a hawk stalking my chickens. Yesterday, he dropped SOMEONE ELSE'S CHICKEN in my yard! I was floored and have no idea where this chicken came from. This morning, I heard my rooster giving his "alert" crow, looked out the window and this hawk is literally sitting on the top of the run fence! Hubs has a high powered pellet rifle and tagged him good. He didn't kill it, but we doubt he'll be back. I really recommend getting a rooster, if possible. As long as they aren't aggressive to humans, they are great protectors of their ladies. So far, my boy has done a great job.
