Dad I believe is a yellowface type 2 sky blue (the yellow through his feathers makes him look like a "seafoam" colour), baby #1 I think is a spangle, and looks to be yellowface as well but might be type 1 as I can not see any yellow wash throughout it's feathers (yet). If you have pic of it's back is easier to identify if spangle, could be greywing (or both ???)
Bub number two appears to be a skyblue and I think might be opaline but not sure and is also a yellowface.
I think mum is a skyblue spangle.
We need Libby for this, Libby where are you???? ;D

Have a look here:
