I still really don't get it. I looked a bit at the pics, but not all of them were labeled. Some look like my 3 girls. I wish I knew more how to post pics and stuff, because I really think I would need help identifying what I have. I originally received 5 'pullets' that were from an ag store nearby that were supposedly Americanas. Well 2 of them were really roosters and # 2 is on deathrow....# 1 has been turned into herb chicken......very good. Not nice to pay pullet price for straight run. I then decided I needed the real thing and ordered some Araucanas from a farm in MS. Half are rumpless and only 2 are tufted, with a few others with a hint of tufts, so I have a lot to work with to get some tufted, rumpless, with the correct colors and so on.
I was planning on introducing my 3 (perhaps) Americanas to the corresponding Araucana to get the offspring slightly closer to what their ancestors were, but still calling even those,'americanas', so no one could call me dishonest. But now I am wondering if I might not have Easter Eggers.
