I wonder if it’s possible to hand-feed/domesticate a baby hawk? This creature is gorgeous... love to have one as a pet.
I would put him at about 10 lbs.
I would not domesticate one. They are programmed to survive in the wild and anything that changes their behavior puts them at risk.
I enjoy watching them, but we also have to string our chicken run/orchard so they will leave the chicks alone. It’s been very effective and hopefully when the fruit trees are large enough we won’t have to do it anymore.
