That's very strange, unfortunately these things do not tend to stay this way for long. They either die because the food in the seed in finished and can't metabolise themselves due to the lack of chlorophile, or they eventually turn green to be able to stay alive.
I'm quite curious to se what will happen, but keep it away from direct sunlight for now I'd say,....to prevent burning these tender leaves.
Kind regards,
Remko.
