I’ve got 3 12 week old chicks that have no tails! What’s up with this?!

Just fluff right now. They really don’t like me messing with them.

Could look at night( best time for exams, IMO), but yeah pin feathers can be sensitive.

Ok. I’ll check them out tonight & look for pin feathers on their little butts. Will let you know what I find.

Did your pullets ever develop a tail? I have a tailless BR who was quite sick as a tiny chick and now that she comes into lay she seems to have a faulty reproductive system and is eggbound…
