Sabastapol Gosling Colors?

[SteffanyLee]

Any guesses on these little ones color? They’re about a week old now. Dad is a buff, mom is white!

I haven't owned this breed, but to me they don't look buff. I believe they will be whites. I'm not sure if the coloring will still denote sex being of mixed coloring. According to this site you can't sex them by color,

That's a sex-linked cross. If the mother doesn't have the buff gene hiding under the white daughters will be buff, sons sexlinked dilute (the color of female pilgrims.)

Thought I’d update! We ended up with 2 different shades of buff, and one white (which we sadly lost due to a predator.) The gray is from a different batch, and is a hybrid.

(Just in advance, I know about the angel wing baby. We’ve attempted to treat it early on, but no dice. Going to tape her one more round and see if there’s any progress.)
