Someone with more knowledge than me will surely respond, but it looks like both parents are pied. So baby should be pied as it’s a recessive trait and both parents are expressing from what I can tell

What an adorable little chick though!

I was told Demi is a whiteface I got her when she was 2 years old. Dobby is a pied I got him when he was 3 months old. They are both 8 this year.

Demi is whiteface, but you can have a whiteface pied. It seems like both Demi and Dobby are light pieds - this means they have a lot of gray, so it might seem like they aren't pied. Demi having a white crest and some white primaries looks like pied to me. A non-pied whiteface should have gray primary feathers.

So,@SunnySandi is right that two pieds should give a pied baby. The white down on the baby also means it will be a whiteface. Rocky might look a lot like Demi!
