We have many predators where I live as well and losing hens is a concern for me as well. One solution is to get a rooster. Another I've heard of is a guard goose. It sounds funny but look it up.
My plan is to have an automatic coop and a screened in run for them to start.

Our coop builder lives in our area, which is very woodsy. He tells me not to worry about critters. He knows how to prevent them from getting in. I will still worry.
