What colouring is this?

[QuailLover224]

Earlier this year I hatched 3 snowflake bobwhites from eggs bought from Ebay.
They have all grown well with no issues but when they first hatched, I got this nearly pure white chick while the other two were just normal black and white.

The white chick is now matured and she now has these brown smudgy looking markings, is this a form of leucism or just weird colouring?
Last photo is when she was some weeks old.

No, that isn't leucism. Snowflakes are typically white and black to a dark brown color in markings. This one just happens to be showing more of the 'fawn' color with it's feather pattern. I have some that are the same color as your bird.

I am very curious to see yours since I have never heard of snowflakes being brown

It may be possible the eggs you got were mixed up, did the seller also have Mexican Speckled Bob's? If so, theres your answer!

I don't know much about bobwhites, but your birds are so pretty! I didn't even know you could get fertile eggs off eBay.
