Where did you get her? Could be genetic defect or Araucana mix. I love tail-less chickens, they’re so cute!!

It was 1 of 10 I hatched myself from eggs from a breeder. Its pure white leghorn

I have one like that - hatched from a egg (shipped to me by post) and no rumpless genes expected - so have classified it as an "accidental" rumpless. Explained to me as being essentially a deformity, likely formed during development in the egg. In my case I have decided shipping stress on the egg but suppose could also be other causes. I'm assured that as long as the bird is healthy in all other respects then there are no issues with keeping the bird! They do look kinda cool

We might have the same culprit!!

Did the eggs come from a breeder in Taranaki??
