I've got four 14 week old bantam Araucana cockerels I hatched from Sky Blue Eggs that you can have if you need them. I'm not sure what variety they are, and most are clean-faced with partial tails, but if you're interested just PM me. I'm in central FL (Bartow). Here's a few pics:

It says I have to log in to Facebook and I won't log in anymore. I don't like that account or community.
Put your photos on here and we can help.

Okay try it again. Sorry about that. I forgot about my privacy settings. I upload them to facebook first, cause I can just text message them there. With BYC I have to log on to the internet on my phone and then send them. Its easier for me to just upload on FB.


Here they are:

Anyone have any ideas?

I would not know what to call the color. Beautiful the way it turned out. I like the unusual. I have quite a few roos that are from a wheaten Marans roo over a Cuckoo Marans hen that look a lot like that.
It's not really penciled or Columbian, maybe could be considered a splash but I am not sure that would be right. There are a lot of patterns or color combinations that just haven't a name that I know of.

possibly an incomplete columbian? definitely a mix so not sure you could give it a name

Someone just posted a pic of their araucana with that coloring on the araucana club forum. Also I saw a video on Youtube of an araucana hen with similar coloring owned by an araucana breeder. None of them had a name for it, but it is a beautiful color.

For Lanae,

My 'Columbo' somewhat columbian colored tailed and tufted cockerel.

If someone were to work on columbians this bird would be an excellent start.
