Why are the tails different?

[packinaglock]

I have 4 seven week old RIR's and 4 BO's also seven weeks. One RIR and one BO the tails are different than the others, all the others tails stick straight out but these two look like there tails are tucked down pointing towards the ground. Does this make sense to anyone?

they may be roosters , the ones with the longer tails , that is/.

I don't know that they are any longer more like it curves down over there butts. I thought a rooster would stick up in the air?

Can you post pics? That might help. Have they always been that way? They might be sick but I'm not sure. Pics would be very helpful.

I was thinking those might be the pullets myself. I'm not familiar with those breeds, but roos usually do hold their tails up pretty good. Waitin for the pics... Make sure to post some that are not like that as well for comparison.
