I have a chick I thought was a Double Factor Spangle, blue series.
The hen is a double factor spangle green series split to blue.
The cock bird is a Full bodied greywing spangle dominant pied skyblue Violet Cock - Split Ino
The chick feathered up as a double factor spangle but has now got blue under the chin and down the front, none that I can see on the back anywhere but it is still feathering up. Have got a couple of pictures but they are fairly useless but as it feathers in more I'll take some more.
Is this simply colour suffusion? In their last clutch they produced me a DF spangle green series but he was pure yellow and had no green anywhere. Keeping my eye on how the younger chicks develop.

The blue is not showing in the pictures so it maybe the case of suffusion only or it may fade away in the days ahead. Keep us posted

Well I have a white DF spangle cock and he has blue on his back and a bit on his chest so sounds normal to me
