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.

"Guard geese are utilized to monitor the fence at prisons in Brazil for incursions because of their low cost, and the fact that they don't respond to food bribes like dogs."
