It's good to hear that your hen is doing well and that the tail injury does not seem to be causing her pain or affecting her quality of life.That could definitely explain why it can't be lifted. We have only tried to lift it once, never did it again due to the discomfort and hurt we saw in her. However, it does not effect her daily life, nor her egg laying and doesn't cause pain in daily life.
I was just curious how it ended up like that. She is an easter egger who's mother and father both had the tail up.
As for how the tail ended up in that position, it's possible that it was just a genetic variation or abnormality. It's also possible that it was caused by an injury or trauma that occurred when she was young, before you acquired her. However, without more information or a physical examination, it's difficult to say for certain.
Regardless of the cause, it's great that she is still able to lay eggs and live a normal chicken life. If you notice any changes in her behavior or any signs of discomfort or pain, I would recommend seeking veterinary care for her.
