Check my logic with this BEL question...

Okay, I've been wracking my brain on this for a couple of days.....let's say I take a BEL male that was produced from a LesserxMojave, and breed it with a Lesser female. What would the possible outcomes be (percentages)?

BEL (LesserxLesser)
BEL (LesserxMojave)
Lesser
Mojave
Normal

Thanks very much for your help!

12.5%: Normal
25%: Lesser Platinum
12.5%: Super Lesser
12.5%: Mojave
25%: Mojave, Lesser Platinum
12.5%: Super Lesser, Mojave

50% BEL
25% Lesser
25% Mojave..

No normals

I believe it would be:
25% BEL (super lesser)
25% BEL (lesser mojo)
25% Lesser
25% Mojo

This is from a Punnet square I just made. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

I know this what the genetic wizard is saying but is this right? Seems wrong to me that the chance for a normal is there, goes against what my Punnet square says. Also super lesser mojo from that pairing? really?

Because the Mojo Lesser BEL is a homozygous animal and not a combo like a bee..

Becuase the dad has 2 codom genes. So all the kids would get at least 1 of those. All would get either the lesser or mojo gene and there would be no normals, right?

Also there couldn't be a super lesser mojo becuase the kids would get either the lesser or mojo from the dad, not both right?
