After losing several free-ranging chickens one-by-one over several months to fox, hawk and stray dog, I found a 10'x10' kennel on Craigs list and set it up under the trees. Covered the top with reinforcement wire and bird netting, and the sides with bird netting. Now they (6 hens in the kennel, 3 in the coop) only go out for 90 min each day while I am out there with them doing chicken chores and yard work. I haven't lost any for the last year.
