Good question! The answer is, you won't know until you do it, haha. I can tell you all the babies will be some form of blue or silver, and all will be split to white (or possibly some could be white if the pastel drake is carrying white).

Bear with me, character limits, I have to post this reply in more than one comment, lol.

The reason I can't say further than that is there's no way to know what color genes are going on 'under' the white on the white ducks. They could really be any color under there. White in ducks is just a mask, covering up whatever other color they would have otherwise been.

So the white hens could be literally any color at all 'underneath' the white. And whatever is 'under' there is what will determine the color of the ducklings.

I hope this makes sense :)
