Thanks! I really like bluey and will most likely add more blues. Blue is not a recognized color in standard araucana, but once it gets added, I'll be one step ahead. LOL She is not very friendly, but I love her color and her spunkiness.
In the mixed flock there are a bunch of tufted black hens too, but I didn't post their pics because they are in moult and look funny right now. You can see some in the background, but their double tufts are just awesome, like Holly's. I also have a BBR colored rumpless hen that is not pictured. It's so hard to get them all. And the white flock has lots more hens too, but they were outside.
Sara - I'm so glad you got to see this. Yes, bluey is your little girl's mommy.
I don't plan to breed BBR, but blue is definitely a possibility. DH tells me I have to slow down on the chicken craze..so now I am working on Lavender Orps and he says that's it for a while.
I will keep you posted on my blues.
kstaven - there are breeders who have blue that are closer to Washington. Send me a pm if you need names or you could check at the araucana club.
