Certainly, it would. I raise chickens, but less than twenty, and mine are actual chickens that live for a while not factory ones. Decently sized coops, going for a walk once a day for a few hours (I suppose happy, they seem happy) and are quite good at seeing off the odd predator when they're out and about. You're correct, I put them in their chicken-wire yard at night for good reason. A neighbour has geese. Geese get freaked out very easily. If a stray dog comes by at 3am the entire street knows about it. I'm not from the farm. Interesting thing to learn is to let an egg rest a couple of days, no washing no refrigeration of course. Surprised me, wonderful variation in taste.
