The first picture looks like Something from the family of Midas/Red Devil (or the rest of the Amphs) which means you may never know exactly what it is.

The second makes me question that a bit as i have never seen a young Midevil look like that... But i have never personally kept young ones so im not the best source

Hybrids don't always have to show similarities to one or the other parent, just because someone tells you a parent was a red texas, doest mean it needs to have those traits. A hybrid can look like a totally different fish, and in any spawn, there can be a percentage of generic looking cichlids. And because "parrots" are basically simply mutant red devils its no surprise it just looks like a typical generic midivil to me.
