[CHICKENS-101] Re: The Most Unusual Livestock Guardian

 

Would you leave them outside all day, by themselves, to fly about, to alert your chickens to hawks?  In June there was a lost green parrot that was in the trees by the woods.  I left a cage, food and water out,  even talked to it.  It lasted a day before something got it. There were green feathers along the fence by the chick barn behind the cattle barn.

I too have macaws -- greenwing, b&g, scarlet, catalina & military.  when I leave and come back, they will let everyone know 1/2 mile before I am home.
They are wonderful watchbirds and are alert to things the dogs aren't.
When I move, I will have an outside aviary for them -- I am afraid to let them free fly
