Rooster Defends Coop From Hawk

Occurred on January 23, 2024 / Eastover, North Carolina, USA

: "I came home from work and saw a hawk in my chicken coop. My rooster, Big Red, had his hens tucked away in the smaller coop. When I approached the run to see exactly what was going on, Red proceeded to open a can of whoop ass on this hawk! I got all the chickens out of the coop and free ranging so I could deal with the hawk. Red went with his ladies across the yard and I got a net around the hawk. Red saw the commotion and came running and wanted to damn fight some more! I let the injured hawk go on the back forty. After a short time he came to and flew to a low branch. Not sure if he will make it or not! Red's the goodest boy!"
