Any ideas how to stop chickens pecking each other?

Asked by c_gunningham (283points) March 6th, 2009

I’ve tried tar on areas being pecked, some horrible spray that smelt rank, putting food on ground instead of in the feeder, hanging food up, filing beaks but they are still pecking each other, We’ve had them about a year I would have thought the pecking order would have been established by now. Any other ideas from anyone who has kept chickens.
