The Araucana Club of America
The Araucana is a challenging breed that combines the unusual traits of tufts, blue eggs and rumplessness. Tufts are unique to Araucanas, and each is composed of a group of feathers that grow from a protruding flap of skin located near the ear, called a peduncle. Araucanas are rumpless, which means that they do not have a tail, any remnant of a tail, or even an oil gland. There is wide variability in the size and shape of tufts. But a bird with large showy tufts makes an unforgettable impression! . . . more.
The goal of the Araucana Club of America is to promote the breed as described in the APA Standard of Perfection and the Bantam Standard as well as to encourage the development and improvement of the Araucana in both Standard and Bantam size in all it's varieties, through breeding, exhibition, and dissemination of information.
