    Tab at the base of a chickens tail

    Ok I am not sure where to put this chicken anatomy question so I am putting it here. What is the tab at the base of a chickens tail? It almost looks like a big skin tab or pin feather coming up. All of my girls have this and I cannot for the life of me find what it is or what it's for?! Any...
