I've always had a baby monitor in my main coop and it picks up sounds from all the other surrounding coops as well, plus the sounds of coyotes in the distance and other interesting things, including bleed through from two way radios on rare occasions. It is how I know when my arthritic, aging Delaware rooster falls off his roost so we can go help him back up in frigid weather to avoid frostbitten feet from him giving up to sleep on the cold floor. They take some getting used to but I can sleep through crowing roosters at 4 a.m. if it's normal crowing. You learn when it's not normal stuff, like nasty human predators messing around. I hope you don't have more issues. My own friend in Ky has had birds actually stolen on more than one occasion. She has keyed locks on her coops now and once on a very cold night, someone cut a lock on an exterior nestbox and stole some older chicks sleeping inside. She never found out what happened to those poor birds. Human scum predators are the hardest to deal with.
I raised guineas in my flock and it didn't help, had to rehome mine when the violence was too great against some of the hens and my lone rooster, but I loved guineas and may have them again one day. They are such goonie-birds.
