What breed is she?

They're also quite rare, at least in the US. Not sure where your at, since you don't have your country in your profile... but the US version is quite expensive.
Goodness! I feel rather ignorant. I have three that I bought (being told they were Araucana). They looked similar as chicks but quickly changed their looks. Now, none of them look anything alike. Knowing that some breeds have variations and not all are bred true, I didn't think anything of it; color, body type, comb- all notably different. Now, I have no idea what they are. I've actually had this problem a couple times (specifically this year) because I paid for chicks that grew up to be different than what I intended to buy. (Example, I bought 3 Black tailed Japanese and ended up with two Black tailed... and a mystery chicken that ended up being a five-toed white Cochin! Baffling to me, no idea how this happened. I'm not complaining; I love my birds, but it's nice to know what I have.)

They look like easter eggers. What color eggs do they lay?
here's a true araucana rooster, in white.

As I do more research, I find that it does look like a gamefowl, but she does look like a Kingpen Grey. I don't know. It's hard to tell, whatever she is, we love her. My wife didn't want to keep her in the beginning, but she grew fond of her after a weeK.
