Usually you don't have to many problems as long as their is enough food around but depending on your location when they have babies to feed they can get a lot more desperate and start trying for larger prey. My new goat kids are actually smaller then my full size chickens are and the owls will takes those no problem. I have even seen where they have taken young red foxes around here. Horned owls are the worst in comparison though and always a concern. Really cool to see but not something you want on the homestead if you have livestock. I like the little bitty shriek owls since they don't bother anything but the bugs.
