I ordered eggs that were supposed to be either red/buff or partridge, but I got a mix of buff, partridge, black with silver leakage and white. What genotype do you think these two might have? They are 9 weeks old.
 
I was hoping for partridge, but I feared they were just mixed. 😅 They looked like partridge when they hatched. What type of partridge are they? Gold/golden/silver? Do they have a blue gene?
Do you think they will become more red when they get older?

Partridge shouldn't have those red patches and I see no striping on their wings or body

Me neither. 😔 I don’t think they have the striping, that’s what made me unsure of their pattern. Could they be blue with red leakage then? Or something else?
