More surprises!

I got an e-mail from the fellow incubating my lavender pekin eggs and three hatched - maybe more by now. Of the eggs possible colours were lavender or possibly black, blue or mottle split lavenders. Of the eggs hatched so far there is two lavenders and one which apparently has white down!

Now down colour is different from adult colour but we know what chicks from each colour look like. From the split colours I mentioned you'd expect the down to be darkish blacky-blues with yellow splotches. So I am absolutely dying of curiousity!
