Will kangaroos eat sweet corn as it emerges from seed? We plan to grow more than will fit inside the fenced vege patch

I am planting corn in the next couple of weeks. Is it a good idea to stagger planting , lets say at two week intervals. Idea being it wont all mature at the same time. Any ideas on that anyone?
