I wish I could zoom in.. bottom right definitely looks good - bottom center I'd need to see nodules, top left I'm guessing is normal but without nodule picks and/or feathers it's hard to say from this photo.

I was thinking the bottom right was a blue too. Congrats on your new chickypoos.

Your blue boy is most handsome :D

How do you know when they are going to be blue? Baised on the nodules? You both know something I don't/ Thanks for your guesses. =D> I hope to get another blue from this pair. My first pair was a surprise as it is... :D

White center nodules plus really pink skin usually tells you that young babies are blues :)

He turned out to be gorgeous! I love seeing your pictures because of all that natural sunshine on them!!!! I miss Florida where I had mine outside in the sun all summer :?

I see a blue in your new clutch and the others skin looks a lot like the one that is blue but without seeing those nodules it is hard to say for sure.

Congrats :wink:
