They are really cute!

They are! -in a fluffy dinosaur-like kind of way. I like them. =)

Very striking!

Yeah, almost literally. I think they look like fluffy velociraptors. ;)

They really do! I love that photo.

Yay! What kind are they?

Here in NZ they are called Lavender Araucanas. In the US these would be called (Silver?) Ameraucanas. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ameraucana

Hmm. Not silver? Maybe they'd be called 'blue' in the US. Chicken importation from other lands is just about impossible here with out thousands of dollars and paperwork, so they do their own New Zealand style breeding programs here (and naming).

What breed are they?

Dude, your chickens have choreography. They're all stepping out together, right foot forward.

Huh. You're right. They totally are.
