I have white roosters and 2 white hens & 1 tan hen. The eggs were all mixed up but what color are chicks to these parents
 
Welcome to BYC!

With white silkies, it's pretty impossible to tell what color genes they have, because no matter what they have, recessive white covers it up.

Because the chick isn't white, I can tell you that it's definitely the offspring of the "tan" silkie. Can you post a picture of her? I don't know silkies, but someone may be able to identify the color.
