H Hawks hatched

[Hawkowl]

Hi bit of advice required my H Hawks have hatched 3 chicks one has already gone missing. Should I be taking the male out of the flight? As i have been told its probably him doin the damage. cheers in advance

You don't say if this pair have reared chicks before, but male HH are guilty of killing chicks on more occasions than people would have you believe, but unusual for them to do it if they have raised chicks previously. It is always possible that it was a sick one, or even dead at the time of removal. Bottom line is, if in doubt take him out.
