The Birds That Are Listed Do Have White Feather Shafts As Do All Of Thier Siblings I Just Found This Post And Went To The Bird Room And Started Looking At All Of Them

The one in the last pic looks like my khaki girl when I take pics of her - they get really washed out. Those are all blues though?
These are all from a blue x splash mating. The shafts were not dark either at this age. To tell you the truth, I haven't checked this bird lately but will let you know what the shafts look like now.
Found him, he is a cull in my mixed pen now. A very pretty bird but definitely blue with dark shafts. He is lighter on the breast but leaking red in his hackles. My point is that pictures of young birds like that may look lavendar when they really aren't, better to see them as adults.
