Before I bought them I did not know that they are a mixed breed. I thought they were Araucana. I love them just the same. No eggs yet as they are babies.

Jim. Sorry it took so long to respond, you must have posted while all the alerts were down. lol. I got a picture of one of our original blue red cubies. She's not the greatest, and she's really old lol. She was also running past me to try to get the prime dust bathing spot at the time...lol :)

I'll try to get a picture of the whites next weekend. They were really agitated this time and not cooperating with photos. They're still adjusting to their new home :)

Though I was impressed with my handsome half cubalaya mutt, he is going to a new home this week. I want pure babies! MN Shepherdess, your guy got a gorgeous tail and hackles! His red shoulder patch is interesting.

just talking to my chickens...

i have a little jimzook blood from the birds that i got from gallorojo but not in my whites. i have a small black feathered hen that only has a few brown feathers under her beak and has a nice full tail. i am crossing her to some blacks that i got from saladin and hoping for some extra nice black cubalaya.
