Best Answer

Both sexes change color as they mature. Females are typically a lighter color 'red' and both sexes can become a bleached out red (caused by sun exposure and natural lightening) After molting both sexes get 'new feathers' often making them appear to darken, or in the case of males by age and maturity. As they mature the color of a male Rhode Island Red will deepen to almost a mahogany color while a female stays typically 'lighter'.
