The British tailed Araucana breed is fundamentally identified by its blue egg colour, cheek muffs, beards, ear tufts, "eyebrows", small "pea" comb and crest. It is all these features in the right proportions that tell you that you have an Araucana. If any of these fundamental characteristics are missing, the bird you may be inspecting is in fact likely to be either a hybrid or a different breed.
