The Araucana chicken breed originated in Chile.  They have a pea comb and white skin.  They can be both tailed and rump-less.  They can have ear tuffs,muffs, and beards, though the tuffs are some times bread out to decrease the mortality gene.  You can sometimes see a small crest and they have no wattles. Araucanas are quite rare.
