Multicolor Rocotos

These two Mini Rocoto Rojos are from the same plant.

I wasn't aware they did this. So far, all have ripened yellow.
 
Aji Rocoto Oro, same thing.

Is this a late-season phenomena I'm not familiar with? A genetic pigmentary hiccup?
 
Or is it simply red, eat it and kindly move on.......
 
 
I get the same thing from time to time with my rocoto plants. I don't know what causes it. Here is a pic of a rocoto arequipeño plant from my garden a few years ago, putting off both red and orange pods
