Yes...But the last time we had a chicken die from a predator, thankfully, was back in 2007 when we lost 3 chickens, and since then we've lost 2 chickens due to disease. So since we started raising chickens in 2007, we've had about only lost about 5 chickens. That doesn't include chicks dying during incubating/hatching, though. I've lost some while they were hatching.
