Defending yourself against a feral animal that’s attacking you is not abuse.

It’s a hen, not a rooster. So it isn’t even territorial. It can pick your bare toes and while it may surprise you, I’ve never had them break skin/bled from it. (And I never bother putting on shoes). But my spouse has a pair of sandals? Slides some would call them that are like foam and the always are interested in pecking those to see if they are food, I think it’s the design.
Now if the rooster in the middle really wanted to start something maybe you’d have reason to peck back but kicking a hen is is like is akin to roundhouse kicking an unsuspecting toddler in the face. It isn’t self defense, it’s dropping a nuclear bomb on a homeless person asking for change

it’s not attacking you.
I’m not OP. I don’t know what that chicken was doing to him. But if it’s enough to drive him away from his fishing spot, I say that’s enough to warrant hitting back.

The chicken was abusing him first.

It itched for several seconds, so me dousing the ant hill in petrol and lighting it up was just rational.
