One strike and you would not just be shredding bird but damaging metal not to mention creating less airflow into the inlet that contributes to many other turbine engine problems. The current designs are better at tossing the chickens into the bypass flow, less and larger blades to damage on the fan. Trust them, they have a good handle on it.
