I have now my own grade Aa red texas fry with the father being a f1 GT and mother a KKP. The fry are about a 1inch maybe some 1.5, but I have noticed that some are showing remarkable coloration:headbang2. My question would be then should weed out 85% of the fry that are Not showing any color to make room for those with coloration or should I just wait? They are about 1 month old..
 
Wait till they get about 2.5-3 inches.
 
To your original question - you don't have a lot of them to weed out anymore, so grow out the ones you have and see what they look like at 5 inches and go form there. Even if they don't fade, the color looks good, maybe cross back to another parrot or a srt that is faded.
 
You will be mainly working with your female faders as most of your males will be sterile.
