Chickens do not have tails in the same way some other birds do; instead, they have a structure called a "pygostyle" at the end of their vertebrae, which supports their feathers. The feathers that extend from this area can be considered a tail, but it is more abbreviated compared to the tails of many other bird species. These feathers serve various functions, including balance and communication.
