Is this comb color normal?

Hi! I have 8 weeks old Ameracaunas. Both of their comb color look pink instead of red. Is this normal color for young chickens? Should I check more into this?

It's normal, the combs will get red as soon as they start laying

Yes, pink when they're young, red when they mature, for females. Males' combs turn red sooner. Comb redness is associated with laying, but is no guarantee. Sometimes a pullet will have a deep red comb months before she starts laying. Sometimes within a week of starting. Sometimes she'll lay fine but have a pink comb. More often than not it correlates, but not always and is not a guarantee. At the age of your chick though, she's just young and the comb is naturally pale at that age.

When the get close to laying, you will see the pink turn to more of a red color.

Very normal. It will get red when older. My speckled sussex was yellow looking when she was young. Now has a tall beautiful red comb. 😍
