So sorry. I had to. My coop looks like a brothel lol. We put in a red light to cut down on aggression and maintain egg laying.

maintain egg laying

Red light won't work for supplemental laying lights, they need white light for that.......but, yeah, funny lyric switch.

The big question is how do I get that song out of my head.....

No I mean .. Why are they pecking at each other ? How many birds? How big of a coop?

As @aart says red light doesn’t register as daylight to birds ..
