Beth,
The 3 older ones you have were hatched from jmhappycowboy, and his stock originated with Bama and MissPrissy, he said.

Joel let me show you some more pics. You know I keep pics for comparision so each year and i can go back and see who looked like what at what age. I also enjoy looking and comparing to pics on English boards especially the chick pics.
Here is my main Blue Cock when he was 8 weeks old. He took forever to feather in.

Another photo at 3 months

Another at 5 months. and you have seen the recent one posted. Keeps me reminded of how they look at certain ages

Here are some of hens that were young pullets last year. The thing about blues is you will always have varying shades. The lighter they are the less dark the hackle feathers and head seem to be. Getting the lacing good on any varying shade is the object.

Joel on the pics you posted they all look fine at this point. It is a wait and see game. There is nothing wrong with their color for sure.
