Could be I guess... I'd just think you'd have smelled it in the coop.

But the scent is a defense mechanism. The skunk wouldn't have felt threatened.

I've smelled them camping, before...just going by. The smell comes and goes as they pass. But a chicken at night wouldn't make them spray...chickens don't do anything at night. You can pick up the most rowdy chicken at night and it won't do a thing because they go almost comatose! It's weird. I've gone out and found them on top of the coop and just picked them up and thrown them into the coop and they'll just lay there like a rock!
