Actually I have bearded, tailed Araucanas
According to APA an "true" Araucana lays blue eggs. The blue gene is autosomal dominant. A chick hatched from a blue egg will lay blue eggs. So how exactly is it that a chicken that lays blue eggs was cross bred to lay a range off colored...
He appears to be black.
Yes, he has gold or silver leaking through. I cannot tell from the picture exactly which one.
He is not breed quality though. Never breed with a blue or black bird that has silver or gold feathers leaking through.
