They turn grey first, then their color starts to come in. What it will end up like, you'll have to look at the parents to make a guess.
As for how long it takes, some change colors quickly and keep changing for a while, others are slow. I have read that those that break their color really slowly, or later on tend to keep a much darker.
Here's an example of my baby. He broke his color later on, and still is pretty dark. This is Kaji, formerly Bear.

Before his first birthday

at a year and nine months.
