Crowing
My cat is a prolific killer of rodents and birds if she can get them but she has never bothered my chickens even the chicks I brood in the garage where she sleeps. I put a lid on the brooder but it's nothing she couldn't handle if she were very determined. I think it depends on your cat though. I used to keep feral cats on our little farm and I am pretty sure one of them killed a couple chickens but only after she had decimated the squirrel population and only chickens who were separated from the flock. I would just watch the cats and see-maybe put the chickens in a wire kennel in the yard and see if the cats show any interest.
