simple answer yes

Debeaking is the cutting off part of the upper beak of domestic fowl.

Some of the importance of this practice is to reduce cannibalism and to reduce wastage of feeds.

Debeaking is required for birds in confinement to increase livability and curb aggressive behaviors. These aggressive behaviors include cannibalism, feather pecking, and vent pecking.

it is when the tips of the birds beak is removed to stop pecking and canablism

Permanent debeaking is an often unnecessary procedure when used on chickens.

Wire and cage raised chickens often need their beaks trimmed which is also known as debeaking, but is not permanent. This should be done when ever the upper beak becomes too long, generally no more than once or twice a month.
