Went to the state fair. What does SQUIRREL TAIL mean?

[burquechick]

Yeah, what does that mean?

 

[Mahonri]

It could mean an awful lot of different things.

Obviously it could be the hairy appendage the protrudes out above the rear end of a squirrel.

Other than that... I don't even want to hazard a guess.

Squirrel tail is when the tail of the bird stands past vertical. It will actually lean forward a bit over the back of the bird, kind of like a squirrels tail does, thus the name. This is a defect in most breeds except Japanese.
