Where did you buy your Araucana? If you didn't buy her from a breeder, you did not get an Araucana. Do you have a picture?

Not a great picture i know but all i have right now...got them from a feed store here in CT

You have an Easter egger hen. It is not uncommon for hens that are supposed to be Easter eggers to lay a brown egg if both parents hatched from green eggs.

Thanks enola!
And so does that mean she will always lay brown eggs (I'm assuming yes) I love learning everything there is to know about chickens- so thanks again
