Bahamian Goat Peppers

Is it normal for Bahamian Goat peppers to have tails/stingers?
This is the first year I have grown them.
Thanks

 
Yes it is normal.
I seen this happens in many strains like MOA, or even Habanero
 
Two things:
 
1.Not all pods on the same plant have this look
2. Seeds from those pods most likely will not look this way next generation.
 
So it is just a normal growing habit that happens a lot in many Chinense peppers mainly native Habs and Bonnets.
 
Interesting. One of my bonnet plants last year formed "Bahamian Goat" like pods. Every pod had that quad-pucker look. The insides were nice and creamy white.

2013 - Yellow Bonnet/Bahamian Goat?
 
... BUT, this year's generation is throwing out pods that look more like a yellow hab! Pretty sure this particular one didn't cross. Yet, another that I crossed is showing the quad-pucker again.

2014 - Yellow Bonnet/Bahamian Goat? (seed from plant above)
 
Quad Pucker? I've never heard that terminology before but after looking closely at the pod I couldn't think of a better way to describe it. But it could be used in so many other ways like:
 
"I love my job but my boss is such a Quad Pucker that I need to find another" :rolleyes:
