My chick ended up dying. It was eating and drinking on its own, but didn't have good vision. It ate enough to maintain weight, but not grow. It died at 6 days old. Its brooder mates were 4 times the size of it by day 6.
wow! that is crazy, did you ever figure out an official name for this coloration? Also, did yours have bad vision at all? Just need to know if I need to help minel.
I just hatched a chick from shipped eggs and it looks exactly like your albie! I couldn't believe it when I saw it. How did she end up? Did any of her offspring show her color again? I'm very curious as to what happened the last few months!
