Yep, I had a couple hundred free-range chickens in the 80s, but had to get rid of them when they started flying the coop and tearing up the gardens.
I am going to get a few, now that I'm retired... retarded?... LOL and in my 70s.
Possums are out there and will need dealing with, so, out comes the .22LRHP scoped semi.
I don't really do any "hunting", anymore, but I won't let anything kill my chickens.
BTW, look out for blacksnakes, too. They're harder to control, because they can 'ooooooze' into the peep house. They also are egg-eaters.
If you are in fox/weasel country, watch out for them, too.
Get a couple, or so, 'keets, too. They'll nest in the trees and be your "burglar alarm".
