Yes put the chickens inside an enclosed area that the hawk cant penetrate.
ye
it depends if you keep them in a safe environment free range chickens tend to meet predators sometimes but since they have been outside in the wild most free range chickens will protect themselves home raised chickens tend to be on a hawk's menu.because the chickens have a limited area to run away they die easily. to protect the backyard chickens watch them and if a cat or hawk comes scare it away (when your chickens chirp a lot and are running/predators are around),or put them in a large enclosure with a net ceiling that way hawks can catch them,also baby chickens should be in a chicken cage/house they tend to die more then adult chickens(every ting to them is new) (watch younger chickens/prime target) (adult chickens need safety too even though they are more experienced)

The red tail Hawk, one of the largest species can and will eat guinea hens if they are around. in the related links box below I postedan article in the guinea hen that has a hawk as a predator. one of them was caught. very interesting.
Shoot them. The hawk not the chicken. Once they get a taste of your chickens they just keep coming back.
because they were chickens because they were chickens because they were chickens
it puts its wings around the young hawk.[2011]
Domestic ferrets do not kill chickens. Any kind of weasels in the wild would prey on chickens. Keep them in a pen.
You don't need to trap the hawk, you need to protect the chickens. Even free range hens can be put unto enclosures and a fine mesh net placed overhead to keep them safe from raptors. Fine netting is available from many big box store like Lowe's and Home depot to keep birds off gardens. A few well placed posts with the netting placed on top will deter the hawk attacks.
The relationship between a hawk and a chicken is primarily one of predator and prey. Hawks are birds of prey that hunt smaller animals, including chickens, which are domesticated birds. This dynamic plays a crucial role in the ecosystem, where hawks help control populations of smaller animals, while chickens serve as a food source for these predators. In agricultural settings, farmers often implement protective measures to safeguard chickens from hawk attacks.
