OEG Bantams... What color are they?!

We bought this little pair for our daughter and love them, but are curious as to what color they are. Thanks!!

Fawn duckwing? But their faces and legs look dark for that color, so I'm not sure that's correct.

Thanks, I am curious because we hatched chicks from them and 2 have the duckwing eyes, and 2 do not.

Okay, the chicks in the sleigh might be the cutestt thing ever!

I only have one OEGB, and she had the eyeliner and chipmunk stripe as a chick. She is a BB Red though.

So, either way.. why do their chicks not all have the duckwing eyes? For some reason I assumed that they would all look the same. One that sadly didn't make it was almost silvery grey.

The parents are Birchen, but are Split for Duckwing.
