I lost one of my Swedish Flower Hens today. My black crested hen was killed by a hawk while I was gone today. My daughter heard the commotion and went out in her bare feet to see what was the matter. She saw a small hawk, perhaps a peregrin, on the fence to the pasture next to the SFH coop. She scared it away. I am not sure if the hen was already dead at that point and she just didnt see her, or if the hawk returned later. My husband found her when he went to lock up the coop tonight. Needless to say, the flock will be on lockdown until I do something to discourage the hawk. RIP Diamant!
