What colors are 'normal' for head coloring in Blue Slate turkeys? I have/have had Narrangansett, Narrangansett/Red and Blue/Red/Bronze... the Blue/Red/Bronze have a great variety of colors their heads go through, but one of the hen offspring from last year is all blue and I'm seeing something new since breeding season started - a pale but distinct emerald green. Mostly at the crown, one area I've seen half-way down her neck on the side. Her night-time (resting) color is normal. Is this a normal color for Blue Slate? She acts just fine, (actually incredibly amorous) eats well, etc. Just do NOT want to lose her, and since it's something 'new', I'm panicking. Would anyone care to set my mind at ease? please! LOL
