White silkie rooster X grey sizzle hen

[1 Critter Camp]

I have several chicks from a white silkie rooster and a grey sizzle hen... all of the chicks look grey (they are all about 2 weeks old).
I thought I would get other colors instead of grey, is grey always dominate? White is always recessive?

Would the chicks have an recessive white gene?

I can't tell yet if any of them will have curly feathers. Is there a 50/50 chance to have silkie feathering and the curly feathering?

Thank you for your help!!

Grey/Blue is dominant, you should have hatch all black chicks too, but with low number hatches this does happen, and yes your grey chicks have recessive white in them

You can have 4 different feather types; sizzle, smooth sizzle, frizzled silkie, and silkie.
