If in fact hennie colored I am seeing, then likely from a novel mutation. I have never seen proper hennie colored in these birds but many on male side very slow to come into color.

Crappie problems preventing me from getting pictures.

I get the same non distinct hennie colors when the bird is less than 1/4. They always seem to change out about 6mo, it may just be the strength of the gene. I feel when it shows in a straight feather line and not bred for the line tends to be superior cutters.

Alright my gamefowl guru online friends I just acquired a 4 year old cock and I believe him to be hatch. Not sure which but when daylight I will post pictures. I also got a 5-7 yr old grey hen tonight not sure her bloodline but she is a gorgeous bird and lays good and hoping to hatch some chicks from her and my grey cross stag.

Congrats on that hatch cock. I hope it's from that blue face stock your aunt has.

Skirmishes are still "playful" probably to determine pecking order. No injuries but it gives me a good indicator who is dominant.

Nice action shots.

Trick is to record video and take screen shots. Way easier than trying to time it with Camera

looks like a lil stag. very dark for hatch/claret... I would have thought they would be more like BBR colors.
