[QUOTE="Urban_Hunter, post: 5321863, member: 12353"] My personal theory is rooted solely on predation. Having owned chickens I’ve seen first hand how fast coons, foxes, hawks, and owls can wipe out a flock. Hawks and owls are no joke, it seems our main focus is on coons or coyotes…. But I’ve seen owls kill a rooster much larger than them. I’ve also seen an owl roost on a limb full of guineas and work it’s way down the limb and grab one by the neck. On one hand I don’t understand how they’re not thriving considering how many eggs each hen has, on the other hand I’m surprised any survive at all [/QUOTE]
