Two Weeks Old......She doesn't look very "blue"

I have (2) 2 week olds that look the same as yours. The only way I know they are blue is because the breeder I bought these from uses a splash roaster and thus should not have any blacks. I also have some 6 week olds that are feathering nicely. It's amazing the change in just 4 weeks.

LOL!!! You are going to drive yourself crazy. Mine didn't look "Blue" for months. They are just over 3 months now and some of them didn't start "Blueing" until a couple weeks ago. I bet that one is super blue!

This little guy started out really blue. Hate his comb but it's a works in progress.

Gorgeous. We are not allowed to have roosters, but that makes me sad because they are so beautiful!

I think you have a black and not a blue.

Beautiful colors! I love your birds!

Keep in mind that you may need to hatch out over 100 birds to see those ratios.
Here are some That I'm working with.

Some updated pics of my BLRW at 3 weeks. It's amazing how fast some are getting their feathers while others have just a few. I know girls are supposed to feather in faster but still. I've notived two of them have just one really long random feather sitting on top of their other feathers (pics 3&5). I wonder if that is some indication of male vs female.?? Anywho just thought I would share

They're cute! And at 3 weeks old,they give me hope that the only one I hatched from my ladies is a pullet! This is one at 2 weeks. They are 3 today.

And I have never seen a large feather like that! Are those 2 different chicks?
