The mother is a leucistic and father a wild type. Some of the babies i know are wild types the others im not sure on. they have white/clear bodies and a gray head. some of them the gray marking goes down their back. Are theys going to be Leusistics with so type of markings? or something else all together?
 
How old are they? Can you post pictures?

It sounds like probably you have wild types and leucistics.

Can you see the eyes easily on all of them? If you have albinos, their eyes are much harder to see even at a very young age.

If you have melanoid genes in both parents, you should have some melanoid offspring. Some people are good at identifying them from pictures - I need to wait until I can see the lack of an iridescent ring around their eyes.
 
they hatched one day ago some have black looking eyes and some have eyes that look white. here is a pic i was afraid to get my phone any closer lol 12575937_913761032054287_1902764032_n.jpg
 
Cool! Sound like you have albinos too!

If you have albinos, leucistic, and wild type, (but no melanoid) then based on what is known about the parents, 1/8 should be golden albino, 1/8 should be white albino, 3/8 should be leucistic, and 3/8 should be wild.
 
ok cool :D going to have lots of diff colors then thanks for all your help !
