Is this normal?

I had a partridge pair i rehomed a few weeks ago, I decided to hatch the few eggs i had left from the hen and that roo for fun- I didn't hatch from them often, but the times I did were in small portions and the chicks were silver/gold partridge looking, I never got one like this. (That I know was from them.)

It'll still grow up to be partridge. Not unusual to see in silkies a variation in partridge down color pattern.

This is a Silkie mix as an example of the down color pattern. She grew up Gold Partridge.

The Mother was a Partridge American Game Hen(Blue Face). Father was a Partridge Silkie.

I actually figured it out- the mom wasn't the partridge hen, a little whoopsie happened.
A few days before I rehomed that partridge pair I had a white satin hen in with them, i didn't know she was laying at the time-
But i guess she was, and that's what happened.
It makes sense as a chick i hatched similar to that one a few months ago was that same partridge roo over a white silkie hen. This time it's the same combo except a white satin.
Here's the one i hatched a few months ago (in front.):
