My three Australian araucana are now 4 months old! I ended up with a stunning pullet that I will keep, handsome cockerel that will easily find a home and an oddball not to standard cockerel that I still hope i can find a home and wont end up dinner.

pullet - Rose

These are pure (but not show quality) Australian standard Araucana which follows the British tailed standard
I do believe in America only the rumpless birds are recognised as Araucana. The British standard accepts both the tailed and rumpless variety and here in Australia our standard only accepts the tailed variety. We don't have Ameraucana here in Australia
 
Those look like silkie, Ameraucana mixes... Otherwise know as Easter Eggars. Araucanas are rare and look different. People call them the wrong name commonly.
It might help if you were familiar with the uk/aus standard which is very different from the us type
