First, thank you all for your kind replies on my girls.
Second, to answer a few questions, they do free range everyday! They don't have any problems whatsoever, except they can't peck exactly like a "regular" chicken. When they do peck at things like leaves, grass and other plants, they do fine, they just have to tear at the greens a little harder.
I can't hang a head of cabbage for them to peck at, because they don't have the sharp point to effectively get anything worthwhile, but I'll compromise for them, like I will hang a suet feeder with shredded cabbage in it for them.
They do real fine. Like Seminolewind, you just do a little extra for them. I have no problem with that. They do look a little strange at first, but once you get to know their personalities, they're just chickens with a little handicap.
