What color would you call my rumpless tufted araucana

Possibly blue on extended black with melanisers missing? Also could be split for silver & gold?

Pretty!

This is interesting since I have a cockerel that is 1/2 Araucana and 1/2 Game with the same color pattern.

I don't know anything about color genetics, but how can they have both silver and gold bleeding through ?

Males carry two copies of the gene. A male can be S/S (silver), S/s+ (golden) or s+/s+ (gold). A female, however, carries only one copy of the gene, so is either S/- (silver) or s+/- (gold).

Blue.

I guess my point was that since it is a cockerel it can indeed carry mismatched alleles.
