At what point should I know if my birds earlobes are red?  They all look whiteish to me.
Here is a picture of one of my cockerels, aprox. 4 months old.
It\'s not the best picture because I took it while holding the bird.

He will need to be nearly mature to see good red. Skin color or pink is generally heading in the right direction as a bird matures. You are trying to avoid enamel white as in a leghorn or rosecomb.
