Sapphire Olive Egger

[Akgmrw62]

Sorry just saw this. He never had a tail bone nor tail feathers. Since he's sapphire olive egger I'm guessing he inherited an araucana gene for no tail bone lol

Just noticed today poor Midget has lost his up curling feather and almost to lose his one long feather. I'm sure his testosterone will carry him threw the shame of no roo tail feathers tho .

My lil man "Midgit". Got him with other sapphire olive eggers from Hoovers online. I miscalculated on another post, he is 19 weeks old. He's got the biggest comb I've ever seen and wattles keep growing.
He has no tailbones nor that triangle piece tail bones end at. He's got that one feather that grows down and small one that curls backwards it looks like as far as tail feathers go lol.
Has anyone else gotten any of these SOE that have no tail and look like they are missing half their body
