it can only be a grey cheek cock.

The penguin is a grey one, the hen a cheek grey..............so the young cocks are grey/ penguin or grey cheek/ penguin

The hens are normal/ penguin or grey cheek/ penguin.

If the penguin grey cock would be split fawn, then you would get fawn cheek hens, fawn hens, normal hens and grey cheek hens............all split penguin. The cocks out of such a pairing cannot be of fawn color.
