Three Breed Identifications

Well I've been through all the creasted breeds on Wikipidia and none of them have a comb like hers, I guess it'll be a mistery forever, thank you very much everyone :)
 
Second one looks like my Araucana (Australian standard) but with a straight comb, shes been mistaken for a polish/EE mix many a times.
if you're in the UK/AUS/NZ that could be one possibility

Yes, I'm in NZ.
How can I find a photo of the Ausralian standard? She looks so different to Araucanas, the cheak tufts are different and they don't have beards either. If it is an Ausralian Araucana do you know why she might have a straight comb? I attached a photo that better shows her comb. It doesn't go all the way down her head and is instead twisted over it's self so it falls to the side.

Yep AU and NZ standard calls for a tailed bird with a crest, muffs and beard. A lot different to the rumpless and tuffed Araucanas you see in most parts of the world (UK accepts both varieties)
Sometimes things like that just pop up, I have had single comb silkies come from two walnut combed parents.
I must say I love her muffs/beard and wish my girl had that nice compact crest

She is very beautiful. I think her daughter, who is mixed with some bantam rooster I didn’t know the breed of, is even more beautiful. If I knew the breed of her father I’d try to replicate it in the future.
