Araucanas?

[Haley Brook Chickens]

The red one was purchased as a araucana, she lays one light green egg a day as of Nov 5. The white hen I was told it was a buff araucana and could lay a pink egg? I thought I would seek out the opinion of you lovely folks!

Neither are Araucanas. Most Araucanas are rumpless and with ear tufts and quite rare. The yellow legs are one giveaway. They appear to be mixed breeds. And no one can guarantee what color egg they will lay, that being the case.
Jody's site shows true Araucanas. They lay blue eggs, never pink(which are actually a shade of brown, not true pink).

Agreed, except for the comment about yellow legs. Araucanas do carry the yellow leg gene: willow legs for most varieties, yellow for white plumage.

You're right! I forgot the yellow legs on the whites, but still, neither of those are Araucanas.

Yep, not by any stretch of the imagination! This is an araucana:

Neither are Araucanas. They look like mutts.

I am not any sort of expert but they look like Cubalayas to me.

Both are mutts.

The comb on the first hen definately is a mixed straight comb, and the second appears to be that way.

The second one is a gorgeous hen!

If you'd like some help, I've made a video on the differences between EEs, Ameraucanas, and Araucanas. There are several good, thorough threads about the subject too.

Nope, not cubalaya.

I do love the second hen. She's has a very beautiful plumage coloring.
