Are these pure red araucanas?

Hello! I bought these chickens off a lady that said they’re araucanas but looking at them they have tail feathers, and only one crown is pea shaped.

None of those are aruacanas they look like barnyard mutts

So just a mix of every chicken? the lady said hers lay blue eggs.

I think they are probably Easter Eggers (chickens that lay blue or green eggs, but do not belong to any specific breed.)

It is fairly common for stores and hatcheries to sell chicks labeled "Araucanas" or "Ameraucanas" or various wrong spellings of those names, when the chicks are actually Easter Eggers.

The lady might have bought chicks that were labeled "Araucana," and assumed the name was correct.

Probably labeled "Americana" and misunderstood. The spelling and pronunciation are so confusing the hatcheries get away with the deception.
