New England Farmer, my set up is similar to what you are proposing. I do let mine out of the pen to free range but they have lots of room in the pen as well. We shut them up in the coop at night. As for flying out of the pen, you trim the wings on one side and that keeps them from flying out of the pen. Big oaks will NOT keep the hawks at bay as we have have had them try to dive straight down from the branches. We also have owls in the trees at night waiting for mice. A chicken wire roof is nice but if you can not stand up straight in the pen it will get old fast. A good watch dog in the yard helps keep the predators away whether the chickens are free ranging or in the pen.
