Peachick colouring

[Johnnysuffolk]

Hi all. These three peachicks are just over 4 weeks old. My question is what colour are they?? The hen is Indian blue as is the peacock but as you can see, two of the chicks are very pale - does anyone have any ideas??

I heard that BS chicks tend to be paler and get their colors overtime, but I don’t usually do Peafowl

I heard that but they shouldn’t be black shoulder

Could you post a pic of the parents?

Hmm...your Peacock’s wing feathers are suspicious....the dark patch of blue on his wings wouldn’t be there if he was an IB. He looks almost like a Spalding, but I’m gonna say he’s an BS

Male = IB split BS + genetic spalding pollution.
Female = IB split BS.

Thanks for this - so do you think the two paler chicks will be BS?

I can't help you but I wanted to say that they are beautiful! Congratulations!

No pictiure when they were younger?
BS chicks = pink / beige wings.
