What Color is this Silkie Rooster

I Would think he is dominant White except there is no sign of black pigment whatsoever. I have never seen a Heterozygous White Male with a "Buff/Cream" colored Tail and without some black specks on the Flight Feathers and Tail feathers.
I have many dominant white Silkies without black specks, except one rooster that has some in his tail.

Perhaps Silkies are Special. I was holding judgement on the Dame, wanted to wait and see what kind of chicks she and the red rooster gave me. No black leaky males found so far. But all things point out to Heterozygous dominant white. I am not that lucky to have found a "Special" mutation

Maybe one day you'll find something new in the future.
 
I don't like surprises. Specially from genetics. I expect consistent results. I think this year I will finally start my "Pink/Salmon Silkie" breeding project.
That sounds fun.
My Giant Silkie project is making progress. My F2 Rooster is now 5.20lbs. He's also grown abit.
