Question

Is this lavender hen an Araucana? The lady I got her from said she was.

Also, what would the offspring look like if I breed her to my Salmon Faverolle cockerel?


Thanks!

Not an Araucana.
Looks like an Ameraucana though.

I agree with @The Moonshiner

Darn is there a reputable breeder you know of where I can get a lavender Araucana?
Would the offspring of the cockerel and ameraucana hen be a favocana?

Sorry I don't. Araucana breeders are a bit rare.
Favocana (sp?) is nothing more then a cross breed given a fancy name in an effort to market them in attempts to charge more then they're worth. IMO.
I believe MPC does use favorelle and ameraucana in their cross although I believe they use splash so they get all blue offspring.
You would get blue as well as black offspring.
