Dilute isn't a color, but it is a gene
It's what causes reds to be yellow, brown to be khaki, and blue to be silver.White isn't caused by the dilute gene; the only similarity being both white and dilute effects the thickness/length of down on the babies. There's a lot of forms of white, and depending on what kinds of white the parent carries, the babies may have a lot or a little colored feathers. Chances are, you'll have at least a little red showing in the babies

Figs are loaded with recessive whitesQuote:
I have blues, blacks, ash reds, ash yellows, all of which have produced recessive white young. It takes both parents to either carry recessive white or to be recessive white to produce a recessive white as it is a simple recessive gene. All that said, if the male is ash red and is not split for another color, all the young will be ash reds, even if they happen to be recessive whites. The color underneath will be ash red, it just won't show. Half the young in a mating such as this, should be normal colored and half should be recessive whites. The normals produced will also carry recessive white in their genes. There are also a multitude of other reasons to produce white pigeons but in figs, recessive white is the number one reason. Bill
