Happy New Year!

I've heard "peeps" used to mean baby chickens (especially the cute yellow marshmellow ones given out at Easter.). I suppose it could be slang for "people."

I think it may have its origin in an online chatty-type thing called something like Ppl. [Now that's a vague answer for you!]
