    Genetic stripe is recessive

    Breeding a G-Stripe to a co-dom gets you normals and more co-doms all het for genetic stripe

    YEah, thats with anything that is recessive

    So breeding an albino to a normal makes all normal looking babies that are 100% het for albino

    Breeding a co-dom such as a pastel to a normal will technically yield 50% Pastels and 50% normals but thats genetic punnet square figures and certainly not what can happen in real life.

    The Genetic Stripe has two copies of the Genetic stripe gene which makes it a visual.

    It contributes one of the two to all of its offspring - so it doesn't matter which of the two it contributes, it's still contributing one copy of the gene, making all offspring 100% het, whether it's bred to a normal or any other mutation.
