I just hatched a chick with 3 Tufts! Looks to be a blue with two on its penducles and one on its throat. Weird!!!

I bought 1 dozen eggs from Kasino Black araucana in North Carolina off ebay.  He has some truly beautiful birds.  So far this week 4 have hatched 3 more are pipping and I can hear cheeping from a few others when I pick up the eggs.

Lanae, Here are some pictures of my tuft Araucana's with tails. What would you do with them?

That's a partial tail.

 

Actually if you have back issues with your Araucanas, she'd help. But otherwise she'll give you some tails now and then.

 

 

Congrats on the tri-tufted!

I would get a cleanfaced rumpless roo and breed them.  You will get mostly rumpless chicks and you will get some tufted also.
