What colors are the adults involved? That will help narrow it down.

From the pics, they look mostly white, but have a hint of dark on them - maybe a blue or cream. Not black as the darker markings would show up more. But they should come in mostly white with another color in spots - sorta like a bicolor cat


When I had hamsters, the ones that were dark had dark color skin in the spots that came in dark. The white parts were pink.

In your other post you said "mum was self black and father was broken satin dove........"

So I too think they will be black and white, or a very dark grey and white.

If the dove color is greyish, then I would go with that. Think that black/white the skin color would be a bit darker on the black spots - they look pale looking, so going with a lighter color with the white.

Under the cats, mostly.
I reckon you're going to finish up with two little black babies
I recall something from biology class about darker colours being dominant genes - so if you've got a grey parent and a black, the black will win out three times in four.... something about getting a paler colour with a double recessive gene. So I'm going on what little knowledge I have and saying that two little black babies.
