THE PROBLEM
Cannibalism and feather pecking are a complex multifactorial behavioural problem of poultry and game birds worldwide. Predisposing factors include tensoynovitis and other diseases affecting mobility, boredom and strain of bird.
Symptoms include: Pecking at feet (especially young chicks) and vents (adult layers and turkey poults 8-12 days old). Also pecking at the head, face & wings and feather pulling.
Cannibalism and feather pecking may lead to skin wounding leaving it open to bacterial infection. In severe cases this will lead to a loss of blood resulting in generalised anaemia.
ANTI-FEATHER PECKING SPRAY - 2 IN 1 BENEFITS
Benefit no 1
Anti-Feather Pecking spray works firstly by preventing biting, plucking and cannibalism occurring as it contains a foul tasting substance with a very strong odour. The foul tasting substance is so strong most biting or plucking will cease after 1 or 2 days.
Benefit no 2
Anti-bacterial agents have been incorporated for minor skin abrasions and will disinfect the afflicted sites immediately. These agents will also help to minimise bacterial infection spreading allowing commencement of the healing process.

Happier hen The hen doesn't seem to have been pecked since we used this on her, which was only once. The smell wasn't too bad either. (22/12/2015) Margaret - North Yorkshire
seems to be working I have sprayed our chickens three times and it seems to be working. Wear long thick rubber gloves and wellies as the smell becomes unpleasant if if gets on your cloths. (08/08/2012) Roger - Norfolk
Worked like a dream. After two days the pecking stopped. Thanks. (10/02/2012) Peter Bundock - South Benfleet
not convinced , BUT .... Limited success in preventing feather pulling, but accidentally discovered it to be very effective against red mite !Found some in hen house on wall,blasted them with this - quickly killed them AND the area sprayed has repelled others for several days !So now have sprayed perch and hens' legs !
