this is a blue tail. i posted the wrong picture below. someone had asked about taming their blue tail. the picture below is of a wc that was among some i got in for one of my zoos. it was wild as a coot less than 2 months ago. it is very comfortable and handleable now and doing quite well. it likes to sit on my head which usually results in a good ear cleaning for me. the zoo did not need all the blue tails i got for them so i am going to keep it.
