Hi Kelly, I see another trade coming.
Mostly, I wanted to be sure monarc23 was clear about 'what' was 'what' --- I don't want there to be any confusion (and in the future, feel free to ask ME any questions. I'LL answer as best I can) if you have q's about any birds at all.
Just ask!

For one I did not say WHOs birds in question were, and the reason I didnt ask you directly as i did not want to offend you. What about the black roo I see without a tail as well tho? Sara said she'd ask you because I ddint want to come off as rude. Obviously you took offence to a thread that didnt even mention you at all and IM sorry for that. THE first post was me asking if it's possible for Ameraucanas to be genetically born without a tail and still be considered Ameraucanas...sure your post on the for sale thread is what started it but it wasnt to pin point you at all. I have a lot of questions about this breed and am curious to find as much information as i can. Now i could see if i posted it "Dipsy Doodles birds she has for sale...." but i did not.

That's what i was thinking... they're nice birds but the person is callin them Amers. and im preeety sure they're not and just wanted to make sure. I didn't even notice they didn't have tails until someone mentioned it and then that blew me completely out of the water and I just wanted to make sure it isnt like a rare fluke. But yes I agree it sounds like there was a crossing.

No offense taken.
I just wanted to make sure you understand they are Ameraucana and not some kind of rumpless cross.

The answer is yes, it would just be an ameraucana that does not meet apa standards. They where developed from a bird that could be "rumpless" or tailed so genetically speaking it could happen....Unlikely without selecting for it, but possible.
