Silkies Of A Different Color

I wonder if I've got a gray partridge. See the two little partridge guys in this picture?. The color on the closest one is starting to turn rusty brownish like I would expect for a partridge at this age. These aren't my first partridge chicks but all so far of mine have ended up traditionally colored. Look at the partridge in the back- he's getting grayer- not browner.

This is #1 below- traditional partridge at 5-6 week- just starting to turn brownish


And this is Clive below - (actually I have no what sex he/she is but you got to call them something)
Absolutely no brown- getting grayer by the day.


So far all my partridge adults look something like this below, pretty traditional.

So do you think Clive is a gray partridge or do I just need be patient until he/she gets more plumage?
 
Love Partridges, they are the next silkie variety on my wish list. I have black, white, blue, and buff silkies, cochins, and wyandottes.

What color do y'all think this silkie chick will be? It's actually much lighter than it appears here, and has some white on it's chest. Mother is black with a tiny bit of brown on the chest.
