hawk attack

had the birds out this morning before i went to work first two sections all ok then the third section turned my back for a moment birds every were hawk had one on its back by the house tail feathers and secondery flights missing but no blood one late bred missing hope it comes back in the morning

Bad news buddy, hope the birds get over it and the young un makes it back

Did you manage to get the others in after the attack Mark.

yes all the others came in ok 9 of them flew for about 45 minuetes then came down except the latebred thats still missing seen it flying around before i had to go to work

you will have to sort that now mark otherwise it will be relentless as it knows where you are now their are a few precautions you can take ...mine been on lockdown since start of October I would never get away with exercising birds in autumn/winter around here

yes will have to sort it out if it keeps it up might have to clean out with the birds in the loft then keep an eye out when they are out

I have had 3 attacks in 3 days that i have seen. Not lost one yet but took the precaution to lock them down for the first time ever. I think the local bop has had another round due to the mild weather.
