    As someone who owns chickens and has had issues with chicken cannibalism in the past. This is a revolutionary product that I will be immediately researching and purchasing if real.

      Been a long time since we have had chickens. But We did try a product that made the same claims. It didn’t really work in my opinion.

      Best to have fresh greens and insects for them to hunt and not to over crowd them.

      Chickens will eat almost anything. I once saw a chicken grab a frog and swallow it whole. One of its legs was hanging out of her mouth the rest of the day. She was fine afterwards.

      Eggs are also especially tasty to them. You can feed them cooked eggs (very nutritious), but if they ever get ahold of a broken egg and realize how tasty they are, they can start eating their freshly laid eggs before you can collect them.

          That’s the issue with this genie, his form of fucking with your wishes is selectively granting them with the least possible effort. “I wish to be an astronaut!” Nah, try again. “I wish I had a model of the Saturn V?” Best I can do is this picture from Wikipedia

          “I wish for Elon Musk to fuck off forever!” Free will or something. “I wish I never had to see him again?” Wish granted, there’s now a block button on twitter

          “I wish for a million bucks!” I can’t afford that. “I wish for a hundred bucks?” Here’s a crisp fiver. Bye forever!

    “Easy to Use”. I certainly hope so, it’s a fucking spray bottle. What’s the hard to use option? Waiting until a new moon to summon Ba-Kok, God of Chickens to ask for a stay of cannibalism?

      Bruh, if there’s a “spray” AND “stream” option on my spray bottle, I’ll just lock up with indecision. Ease of use is very important when dealing with spray bottles.

        Do you need to cover a larger area? Spray.

        Do you need precision, or to get a hard to reach spot? Stream.

        Understanding what we need is the first step of action.

      The “hard” option is to just get rid of the hen that turned cannibal. It’s going to be just one, unless you’re running an egg factory level operation. Give the hens more space and actual yard time, and most will stop pecking. The one that doesn’t goes in the soup pot.
