Not a silly question at all. The babies would look the same as if you had crossed a normal (non-leucistic) rat with a normal wild type corn. Don't expect them to be real knockouts but it sounds like you'll have fun with it, and that's all that counts. If you breed the babies back to each other you'll get a whole variety of morphs.

You may get some flack if you were to post this on another forum because everyone and thier mother thinks they are a biologist, but neither species is particularly endangered and there is no risk of "polluting" any captive bloodlines if you honestly represent the babies, in the event that you sell any.

Feel free to post any and all questions on these forums or you can email me at elapid@optonline.net, we're all here to help each other.
