The egg with a tail laid by a hen

Yesterday, something strange happened in Qinxī Village, Wēipén Town, Chūn'ān County, Zhejiang. A hen at the home of villager Wáng Fāróng laid an egg with a tail. This odd egg was a soft-shelled one, and the yolk inside was vaguely visible. Strangely, there was a "tail" on the eggshell - a tail about 4 centimeters long coiled around the egg, as thick as a straw, rough to the touch, with many wrinkles. Its color was the same as the surface of the egg, and the overall shape of the egg resembled a small tadpole, which is quite rare.
