My guess is, mom is het. And those creamy babies are as well. Problem is you said they were all girls. So you can't even breed one back to mom to see what is going on. I think at this point, I'd start looking for a 100% het axanthic male, since those are most affordable, and put him to mom and later on the creamy girls.
I know there are no absolute markers to look for to identify a het of any kind that are right 100% of the time. But the bigger guys will tell you, there are clues to look for, especially when looking at a group of normals for possible hets. And I swear, if I were looking at your clutch for possible hets, I'd be all over those creamy babies in a heartbeat. "

I agree you should probably get an axanthic or her axanthic male to breed to her. Problem though, is not all axanthic lines are compatible...... Could take awhile.
