Odd looking packing peanut

[LovinMyPeeps]

Your baby is awesome! When I had one that didn't develop as fast I made a mix of B12 polyvite and acidophilis for her stomach with awesome results. You are a great chicken mom!

here he is, pretty much grown up now. his co-star in the first picture is a silkie bantam, they are about the same size. In the second, it is bunbun, who has started following the chicken's lead in taking dustbaths.

Oddball's a good lookin' boy, small but loud. He's sleeping inside these days, I take him out when it's a better time for him to be waking the neighbors.

Oh - he's also had is first haircut. I found him trying to hop the fence (which leads to a busy 4 lane road) and decided to trim his wings.

Is he tailess? It's amazing how white they stay with all those dust baths.

Yeah, no tail. It caused some confusion for a while, we thought maybe he wasn't a he, but he's crowing now.

he gets to play in the back yard all day when I'm home, around 9pm the ladies to go bed and he and the bunny will hang out by the gate waiting for me to put them to bed too.

the tailless thing... I noticed it too, is he an aracuana?

 

[Etakeh]

We really don't know what he is. He came in with a batch of california whites, but he looks more like a white leghorn.

Without a tail.

He's an escaped experiment. The folks in the egg industry were trying to manufacture tail-less egg layers so they could fit even more in a cage than before!

Well, that's my conspiracy theory.
