Violent behabiour and nutrition

[epitidios]

Does anyone have an idea, if nutrition (vitamins, salt, proteins, etc) is connected to violent bahaviour in hens and poultry in general? If they do not get these from feed, do they try to get through cannibalism?

Thanx in advance

From waht I've read here, yes.

They must get plenty of good protein, and animal based, such as bugs and worms, is ideal and natural to them. We add plenty of fishmeal in winter, and a little less in summer, when they are free ranging.

Where do you get the fishmeal?
