Foghorn and Judy, Maybe?

Tonight, close to dark, I went out to make sure the chicks had water before bed. I squat down beside the run and all four of them line up in a row and stare at me. Only Foghorn and Judy were in a position to get a good picture, though.

The ladies are starting to look so much alike. It is really hard to tell who is whom. I believe this is Judy because of her beak. I compared it to previous pictures of them all.
Then we have Foghorn. He is always front and center.
and from the other side.
Aren't they beautiful? I love them! They make me so happy!

Cluckey and Crowbar

Here is a quick pic of them today after I freshened up the tub they are hanging out in. I'm going to add woodchips, but just hadn't got to it yet.

Crowbar is on the left and Cluckey is on the right.
Michael had put them in with the other chicks yesterday but Foghorn didn't like them too much. He started pecking them, so Michael took them back out. We decided to keep them in a tub until they are a little older and can defend themselves.

We are having a little issue with Crowbar. His/her feathers on his stomach are missing. I know it is hard to see, but he is pretty much bald. Why?
 
Do you think he is sick?
