How do I prevent my 4 week old fully integrated chicks from being taken?

An open fenced lot (yard) offers some protection during the day but won't prevent foxes or hawks from killing your birds. Free ranging chicks usually results in losses because they're small and easy prey for any predator.
 
Keeping them in a secure covered run until they're the size of the adults gives them a better chance of surviving. Birds and cats like to snack on baby birds and chicks
