Russian Spangled Orloff--no tail

[blurose]

Well, I wanted to know how common it was for a Russian Spangled Orloff to be without a tail.

anybody know? I had 2 pullets, one with a tail and one without. Unfortunately, my neighbor shot and killed the one with the tail...the "normal" looking one.

That would be considered a defect and should be culled. Sorry.

Perhaps you could use it for a spangled araucana project?

ETA - where did you get your orloff?
