Why have two of my chooks got bald heads?

I've been away from the house all day today - the chickens have been free ranging under the neighbours nosey, I mean watchful eyes!

Anyhoo, I've come home and found two sporting shiny red heads. They are the lower end of the pecking order and generally get a warning peck every now and again. There's never been any real feather plucking, so if this has started, why have they had their heads stripped and nothing else touched?

they look pretty awful - kind of a cross between friar tuck and a vulture.
