Is this guy like the others? PeepsCA & other color expert/guessers

[critters]

do you think this little guy is a pearled grey like his siblings?
have others hatching now but just thought he seems different so thought I'd ask y'all....

keep in mind I do not take good pictures....with that in mind, here ya are :

#1..little guy in my hand,,,body color different ? lighter

#2. head side markings??

#3..head markings (and body) seem a bit lighter and he was 2nd hatch of these 4 cuties.. has a lighter spot in wide dark stripe on head...

#4. Looks like feathers missing on head but in person they are not

#5. clearer side head view...extra defined side line?

so, what do ya think? is he the same? and then of course aren't they pearled grey? or not? thanks bunches on your input!

Critters, he does look like the other to me.

He looks like my pearl grey keets.

Your very welcome. I also tend to over think things

Down colors and the size/shape/pattern of the head stripes can vary a little from blood line to blood line in any of the fully-pearled variety, but as long as there's a wide center head stripe the keet will be fully-pearled. He does look like a Pearl Grey to me, but it is possible he could turn out to be a Brown since he is a little lighter. I have had a few Pearl Grey keets fool me over the years and turn out to be Browns, but usually it's pretty obvious. You can compare the color of the flight feathers on that little guy to the flight feathers on the other keets when they start growing in, if he is a Brown it will be really obvious at that point.
