Here's the link to the Finch Information Center's gouldian genetic pages. It will help explain the genetics.

Another very good sight is Tiffany's:

Not sure of the parents colors.

Your babies are very beautiful.
I'm trying to figure out if they will remain white headed, or colour up. Are their chests showing any colour at all ? Or are both parents White breasted?

In a previous picture the male looked LB (Lilac Breast) HADI Is it LB or WB? If he is LB then all chicks will also be LB/WB
They both have RH's so the chicks also will be RH unless the male is split to BH then you could have a BH hen chick.

Sorry, I can't remember, but how old are these pretty babies now? Have they gone through their molt yet?
