Rumpless breeds

[TheOddOneOut]

I was thinking that I might have a mutt here too.

From my understanding, SOE are mutts. So yes, rumplessness is not unheard of.

Cochin with no feathers on feet ?

Cool. It was just hard to Google this trait and not get anything but araucana back.

Both of them are very quiet chickens. I do not know if it is personality or breed trait, but compared to my ISAs and Jungle Fowl (very vocal for such a tiny chicken!), they hardly say a word.

Any chance you're not located in the US? There seems to be more rumpless varieties in Europe. There are Manx Rumpys (Rumpless Game) who are at the very least uncommon here, no sure where one could even be purchased. There are also Barbu de Boitsfort, Barbu de Grubbe, and Barbu d'Everberg, which from what I understand are rumpless varieties of the Barbu d'Watermael, Barbu d'Anvers, and the D'Uccle. These seem unlikely because I'm not seeing any other traits of the breed, but there may be rumpless varieties of other breeds too, just not as known in the US. It's probably more likely that the trait just popped up

I am in the northwestern part of the US and bought the chicks from a farmer supply chain store. It is too late now, but tomorrow, I will try to get a pic of her rumped counterpart for comparison.
