Weird colour

[Aylah]

I have lots of chickens with brown and red coloured eyes but there is one about 4 months old who has blue eyes. I looked it up and green eyes could mean cancer but there is no green they are just blue, she is red/orange with grey specks thanks to our grey rooster (Lucas). There is also another chick who is almost 2 months old with the same blue colour eye, she is white and her father was also Lucas but he doesn't have blue eyes. Could he have a diseases and be passing it on or is it just something that will disappear as they get older because other then that they are perfectly fine. I'm worried as Lucas is a big grey rooster who is the father of most of mine and my neighbours new baby chicks and out of all his babies only 3 that I know of have blue eyes. I don't know what to do!!! (Lucas in the picture, with is nails painted pink)

Sorry I can’t help with your question, but had to let you know I LOVE the picture of Lucas with his pink nails! Made me laugh out loud when I saw it. Thanks for that. He must be quite the character!

When they are young their eyes are blue-green and then turn red as they get older.
