Taddies hatch with an “apical tuft”. I don’t recall ever seeing anything saying there is a significance to them, just that they are lost at the first moult. Since it is not unusual for babies to have features that adults don’t have, I imagine it was just a whimsical thing with no particular meaning.
My keyboard is broken. I keep pressing "Escape", but I'm still here.
I thought I read that the tufts of hair help with camouflage in the Reptangle environment? I could have dreamed that up, but not sure xD

Not currently open for PYO commissions.Or maybe it was the eye spots on their bottoms that I’m thinking of?

Not currently open for PYO commissions.Dragonmedley – Do you have a favorite Poad?
I do, but she’s not on that shelf… it’s one of the adult GB poads, monochrome with trees and a dragon.
Read my books! Volume 1 and 2 of A Dragon Medley are available now.

The apical tuft is the remnants of the vel that became the Poad, or however you want to phrase it:

As GardenNinja says, the tuft is lost in the first moult. However, a Poad can change back into a vel if needed so they must keep some connection:

Awwww, tiny Poad chairs!
Interested in buying or trading for: GB Pebble Sitting Red Fox in dark grey, Lap Dragon Test Paints (Water Sprite, Glacial Pearl, Opulence, Pastel Rainbow, and many others - see my Classifieds ad), Blue Morpho OW, GB Pebble Loaf dragons in blue/aqua/teal, and Griffin Test Paints (Black Rainbow or Frosted Jade).

Hmm, I don’t see that mentioned in those pages. Is that something Ms. Melody said longer ago, before she started posting the Veligent pages (and before I started reading the forum regularly)?
But I’m not asking you to go hunting through tons of old threads to find it! 🙂My keyboard is broken. I keep pressing "Escape", but I'm still here.

I probably mentioned this in a comment thread somewhere. The apical tuft is like the belly button of a newborn, or maybe like the tail of a tadpole. It’s the remnants of a physical bit of the vel, a reminder of a transitional phase. The connection to the vel becomes an internal structure, like the way a newborn’s attachment to a belly button closes and becomes the hepatic portal vein.
