Red golden pheasant chicks

Red goldens
Just had 5 out 6 red goldens chicks hatch. Just wondering why 2 are much lighter then the other 3? Any suggestions?

They may be yellow goldens.They could even be cross breed chicks.

That's what I thought, or i was thinking maybe male, female but I know now that's not it.

No red golden males and females look alike as chicks.You'll just have to grow them out and see what you got.The breeder pair maybe crossed along the line and these could be throwbacks from that breeding and that will continue forever.

I have a pair that will sometimes produce a cinnamon chick which is lighter.
