Pen them up until late morning. When temp. Gets warm and thermals are strong. Try a plastic Horned Owl. (The ones used to scare birds away). Horned owls and (chicken hawks) don't get along too good. Then pen them back up before evening comes along when the hawks and owls become more serious about eating.
The easiest and most economical way is to remove the food source. Keep the chickens inside an enclosed area for about a week and the hawk will move on. As long as the chickens are free range and available, short of killing the hawk, the raptor will stay around until a better food source is available.

Jump out and yell boo!
No, You cannot kill a hawk leagally for any reason.
Yes and no. You can scare it enough to stay away from you, but not kill it.
Shoot them. The hawk not the chicken. Once they get a taste of your chickens they just keep coming back.
First of all, you wait for the hawk to come down to get the pup. Then, (make sure you are near the pup but not holding it) you bump into the hawk and it will fly away. But you cant kill the hawk. But, you can try biting it. If that doesnt work, it means you cant kill it and you can only scare it away. I REALLY hope this helps but if it doesnt, im sorry. This is the best answer i came up with.
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)
Yes put the chickens inside an enclosed area that the hawk cant penetrate.
chickens, rodent, mice ,etc
yes
You can't really prevent the hawks from reaching the birds. If you see a hawk eying a baby bird, but it hasn't snatched it up yet, try to scare it away, but be careful. Remember, hawks are capable of seriously injuring or even killing people. If the hawk already has the baby bird, it's too late.
Yes..There are videos of a red tailed hawk killing a rattlesnake.
