My Easter eggers turned out some really pretty looking chickens. Some came out mottled with a lot of white on their tails. I had been selling all the really nice looking pullets because I thought I would get rid of everything but I changed my mind near the end. Lucky for me, a friend had hatched six of my eggs and wanted to give them back to me for the winter. I was very happy to take them back, especially since one pullet turned out mottled and the most interesting thing of all, was she is a black hen with an all white tail. Very cool looking, like someone stuck a white leghorn tail on a black hen. Before I got a picture of her, she is approaching laying age so she dropped her baby tail feathers and grew back adult feathers. She is more mottled now but but but.... can everyone guess what happened, her tail grew back all black.
