Here is my baby at 4 days, 6 days, and 2 pics at 19 days old. Do you think he/she will be blue or black? The feathers look black and gold striped, not laced. Is this normal? It's my first BLRW.

where did you get her from? she looks BLUE to me. it can vary in different genetic lines though..

it is normal for their first feathers to look almost barred.
around 4 weeks lacing will start coming in, laced feathers by 6-8 weeks I would guess.. when the lacing comes in, it'll be blue I'm guessing.

here is 1 of mine as she grew up.. she is Blue.
1 week:

3 weeks:


5 weeks -- I'm thinking, lacing looks black? but her down is blue..
I now have a black laced red and WOW the black is a true black, can't mistake it, but if you only have blue then it sometimes look dark/black


8weeks:


shes about 4 and a half months old here.. most recent one I have:
