Maybe "Runt Of The Litter" doesn't only apply to mammals!

I also have my own "runt" a little red leghorn that is way teenie compared to the others her own age. She's very outgoing and I swear knows her name. The only thing that worries me is her pecking at anything and everything (including me sometimes) and I can't help but wonder if she's getting enough nutrition.
I am thinking of going off organic with her and starting her on some vitamins etc... She certainly is plucky though, I'll give her that!
