Hen pecked

That's usually on top of the chicken but could be pecking. My boy has chickens and a co -worker also does, coworker felt so bad that she had one that the rest were pecking on and being mean to it so my boy agreed to take it . It must have decided to get to see what it's like on the top of the pecking order because it's meaner than heck to his hens.

Red chicken glasses (or poultry anti-pecking glasses/blinders) are, historic, plastic, or, sometimes, red-tinted lens devices invented around 1939 to stop chickens from pecking at each other. By making the world look red, they prevent hens from recognizing blood on others, reducing cannibalism, feather pulling, and mortality rates. They are easily installed on the beak, allow for normal activity, and are widely used for flock management.
