Raising fowl is a lot of work for a few eggs—and well worth it.
If martens are anything like gophers then I know of an instructional film from the early 80's that has many ways of dealing with them.
“To kill you must know your enemy, and in this case, my enemy is a varmint. And a varmint will not quit, ever.”
Hey Denis.
Chickens are awesome! We have had a flock for 10+ years.
Although, it sounds idyllic to get up at dawn to let the chickens out, consider an automatic chicken door in the future. We have this one, but there are a lot of options out there.

Thanks, Marc. I do have one. I just haven't installed it yet.
