What color is this turkey poult?

[ThinMintTheChicken]

Picked up two poults from Rural King so that my 4 year old turkey hen can have some friends. I formerly had 2 others that came with a bunch of chickens I got a couple years back but they ended up being broad breasted so they didn’t live for very long. Anyways, this poult is supposed to be a Narragansett but it looks like it had blueish feathers? Would it be a blue Narraganset or something else?

Looks to be a Narragansett to me. They don't come in blue but can have a grayish tinge sometimes, especially as they grow and feather. The feathers will molt out a few times as it grows, so you don't always see the adult color until after 4-5 months.

A couple months later, and I think that he actually did end up blue! He has darker grey speckles on his feathers and a reddish tinge on his tail feathers. This is the most recent picture I have of him currently

Lol no worries! I wasn’t expecting him to actually turn out blue either
