My chickens are pecking each other

Hey my chickens are pecking each other and won't stop I have all hens. Do they need more room??do they need nesting boxes??

Are your chickens new? Or have you added new chickens to an old flock? If not, then it's just them sorting out the pecking order. When I added some new chickens, the bullying got so bad, one of the old chickens pecked one of the new ones comb off! Some people have hung DVDs In their pen cause it distracts the chicken. Some people have even suggested spraying the comb of the chicken purple because chickens are attracted to red! Normally, the chickens calm down and only do it to establish the pecking order of who is boss and who is not! Hope this helped! Xx
