I wear any colors or patterns that i have, including bright red, orange, or whatever. I'm still the giant who brings food, regardless, and don't accept excuses for idiots who attack me, for any reason.
As @aart mentioned, walk around out there, and walk through them, never around, especially the cockerels and roosters. I walk and talk, don't run, scream, or act anything but calm. I will call them for treats, but not every day, just often enough that the flock will come running.
I expect the cockerels to learn good rooster behaviors, as they mature, and as the roosters and hens educate them. The cockerels don't start out doing it right, but over a few months, they develop better social skills. Jerks leave!
Chickens can recognize individual humans, practice facial recognition, and it really doesn't matter what's being worn'Mary
