No tail feathers on Cream Legbar Roo. Warning…VENT pics!

I love rumpless chickens! I have an EE that I thought was going to be rumpless but its not. If you decide to use him to breed and want to sell hatching eggs to see if he passes on the trait let me know! I'm new to hatching eggs and recently bought my first cream legbars, one cockerel and four pullets and love them!

Have you thought about using him for breeding?

I actually have a hen sitting on 6 eggs with this Roo. She's on day 9. My cream leg bar hens aren't laying yet so ill have to wait to hatch pure CLs.

Let us know if the chicks are also rumpless. How exciting!

Can you update us on what happened? Did any chicks hatch? Were they tail free?
