Thanks for the replies.

The porter turkeys site describe the royal palm poults as With or without a single black strip going down its back.

Guess we will just keep waiting to see how they grow up.

Most are born with the stripe but if they don't and they start all white then gradually over 4 to 6 weeks they will start showing black especially the spot on the tail

So when they are hatched both sweetgrass and royal palms can look the same?
