Copying the four lines beginning with the last "HCOLOR =:" to follow the 
"turtle1 makelist ..." and changing the values of both HCOLOR and NCOLOR 
in the copy to "0 1 1 1" results in both heads, both noses and all the 
balls becoming cyan.

My immediate deduction is that the duplicated head/nose colour results 
from you having used the same list item for both heads and the same for 
both noses: last version wins. If you want them different colours, you'd 
better give them separate identities.

Still no clue about the spurious balls though.
