is it white or a creamy pale yellow in color?
there could be some black shoulder blood mixed in with your pair.
What color is the mom&dad??

I had all india blues, and hatched out all india blues.. then one season a yellow chick appeared - hello!! that is how I learned I had black shoulder blood mixed in to my birds.

OK, gardner has answered your question.
I have some India blue that have recessive black shoulder
allele. They look much like regular IB.
I have some green spalding that are heterozygous for white
(another way of saying it) and most of these show some small
white markings but some really hide it.
But it is really fun when a peachick just might be black
shoulder or really be white. While most bs peachicks do
have some buff tint on wings I have had a bs spalding
peachick that fooled me into thinking it was white
considering that its grandfather really is white
