If you are asking about Betta fry it is usually between 7-11 weeks old. Depending on how well they grow.

It should get its colors when it is several weeks old. Do you have a female betta? They do have some coloring, but not as elaborate and bright as the males.
If you have a male, there is a certain type of betta food that I used to feed mine. I cant remember the name but it has color enhancers in it.

All I really know is that if it is a female betta, then It will never get color. They are like peacocks, the males are the colorful ones.
