Combining Poultry and Soft Fruit??

[TeeDee]

Just wondering if the following is at all possible to combine.
So poultry tend to need a meshed fenced enclosure to stop natural predators.
Soft Fruits tend to benefit from meshed areas to stop grazing from animals.

But are there ANY suitable combinations of animals and fruit in the same enclosure ( assuming the animals are fed feed ) that would work??

I maybe reaching here...

We graze our breeding flock amongst top fruit & stone fruit in our orchard. Our strawberries raspberries, blackberries & currants are protected by fruit cages. We wouldn't dream of mixing chickens. Rhubarb is toxic for chickens & gooseberry thorns problematic.

In summary, our view is that they go really well in an orchard, but not amongst soft fruit.

Likewise, my birds all run free around apple and pear trees, but the raspberries and currants are in cages.

Some of my bigger birds will jump up for low apples, or put heads through cages to eat berries, but without cages around the soft fruit they would decimate the bushes. The peafowl even eat the leaves they can get to!
