My blueberries are sick,

I purchased this blueberry bush from home Depot, it is a Patriot variety. I planted in my backyard with peat moss, compost and plant tone for azaleas and rhododendron. I water once a week and it's fairly Sandy soil so it drains well. I know the yellow could be lack of iron, it's the pinkish reddish color that I can't figure out. I've searched and haven't been able to get any info or find a thread with a similar problem. I have fish emulsion, a bottle from fox farm made of castings and guano, and iron chelate for fertilizers but don't want to over do it.
