These two we call Zip and Zap. When the mommy hen decided it was time to leave them we tried to put them in with the other babies their size. The feathered one does fine because there are two others that look like it, but, the one without feathers they peck on like crazy. So we call it Zap because it keeps getting zapped and then zip just fit for its sibling. We have put them in a seperate pen that is right by the others hoping they will get used to one another well enough so we can put them together again without them picking on Zap too much. Poor thing just kept begging me to take it out so I couldn't resist. With so few feathers they were sure to peck it bald.
