I hatched two peachicks out. They are 3 days old now. All they do is peck at each other’s eyes,beaks, wings, toes, pretty much everything! They started getting red under their eyes and blood on their beaks, so I had to separate them.
Will they die of loneliness?
What can I do to stop the pecking?
 
I don't know anything about Peachicks, let's tag in someone like @casportpony and @KsKingBee

So the other's can jump in - post some photos of the brooder/housing, the peachicks, tell us about the temperature - how you are brooding them.

I wouldn't think they would die of loneliness, but if you can place them where they can at least see each other that would be good.
 
Can you post some pictures of them? Do you have a food scale that you can weigh them on? I suggest weighing them every couple of days to make sure they are gaining weight.

Sadly it is late at night and i’m not able to take pictures very well, but I have this picture:

They were in the big ones to the left.

I would put them so they could see each other, but I only have two brooding plates, and it is being used for baby ayam cemani and ayam ketawas. They started pecking at the ayam’s too.

Here they are. I will weigh them everyday. Do you think they will be ok for the night?
