Chicken will eat one another if they are in distress. It doesn't have to be starvation. It can be too many chickens packed into a small space.

Or one of them could scratch themselves on a fence and the smell of blood sets off a fucking frenzy.

They are dinosaurs bro.

This happens with pigs, had to separate them when a baby was born ( I would have separated beforehand, but wasn't up to me) but yeah they'll eat all that stuff and occasionally a baby.

People cause this level of social stunting by splitting up families and friends and then continue to tell themselves “it’s ok, they’re just livestock, so stupid!” and then take absolutely zero responsibility for fucking families up for so many generations that the animals become monsters to each other.
