Mutation help again

The last year or so I've really started experimenting with some different mutations other than greys and fawns. I got a CFW hen and paired her with a pied grey male. I was mostly getting greys and pied greys, but recently I started getting another mutation. I assumed it might be a SF FF, but I'm now leaning towards a recessive silver. I've also looked on efinch, and they say that recessive silver is becoming uncommon and that most of these birds may be Florida silvers. What do you guys think?

Here are some pictures of heads and tails. Sorry for the messy tail feathers, I've been cleaning the room and trying to catch them all morning.

Thanks! I have a friend that has more experience with FF and some FS. He doesn't believe that they are either of these due to them having a shiny quality to them. His thought was recessive silver.
