New Babies - Look a lot like the Dam

This one is for all you morph nuts out there. I'm not the biggest BP guy or know much about many of the morphs, so I could use some help. I realize everyone does this, but I am not morph crazy. I just noticed after a day how much the babies looked like mom and that they didn't really look normal to me.

Background info:

I purchased a 2008 female from an individual who bought her from Ball Boutique (I've already e-mailed Rick for any available info). Anyways, she is 66% het VPI axanthic and 66% het Snow. I bred her for the first time this year and got 5 viable eggs from her. I paired her with a male 100% het Pied 100% het Albino... or so I thought. My male Black Pastel het Ghost was in her tank for literally a couple hours while cleaning one day... so always a possibility.

Of the 5 eggs, 4 produced. 1 egg collapsed early causing the baby to die... yolk hardened or she drowned... not sure, but the baby was fully formed and dead when the egg was cut open. The 3 of the four surviving babies (and the dead baby) all look exactly like mom. They have a neck stripe, a tail stripe, some head and side blushing, speckles in their alien heads, and some dark spots in the dorsal patterning. These traits point to the specter morph or fire morph, but mom is very dark as if she had black pastel mixed in.

I'm not saying they are morphs or even jumping at hinting they're morphs.... I just want some opinions since it's very odd that the traits were inherited (hinting at codominance). I think I may keep them all back to breed back to mom, to really prove whether or not there is something. I'm probably just looking into it too much right?

Anyways... I know a lot of talking... here are the photos:

A couple of the Babies (all possible het albino, het VPI axanthic, het pied I believe). One even has some white scales along its spine.
