We only have a small flock (8 ladies, about 3.5 months), 6 Buffs and 2 EEs. My EEs are uppity little things, but the Buffs are very sweet and friendly. I haven't named the buffs because it's hard to tell them apart right now - except for Runt (the EEs I refer to as Spit and Vinegar). Runt is my petite little girl - the sweetest little thing, and definitely at the bottom of the pecking order. I usually try to sneak off a bit of whatever the day's snack special happens to be, because by the time she can get to the bowl/feeder, there's nothing left - or if she does muscle her way in there, one of the others will pull stuff right out of her beak - especially grapes.
Anyway - I was just curious if you have a favorite guy or gal, and their name, and if you do them special favors? Today I found myself following Runt around the yard, throwing decoy grapes to the others, to keep them from snatching hers away.
