The bold text is what concerns me...normal babies from a cinnamon x normal pairing will NEVER make cinnamons. Perhaps you should go back and learn some genetics before you continue breeding.....
I'm sure you're right. I'm a retired electrical technician, so genetics wasn't something I had to study, and I readily admit my deficiencies in all things Mendel, (I can talk a mean Ohm though). So, would that be true of a recessive trait also? I think I remember seeing that percentage pop up on one of the calculators I was playing around with, but I may have been looking at recessive traits.
Thanks for the clarification.

It's alright. I'm horrible at any thing physics related!
If you bred a het to another het, you'll get statistically 25% visual recessives. Since cinnamon is codominant, a cinnamon x normal will statistically give you 50% cinnamons and 50% normals.

That sounds familiar and must have been what I had looked at, that's why I asked about recessives. For some reason I get balled up with some of the terms used in genetics. Why I find the subject harder to understand than electronics, (ie; physics), I have no idea. Keeping track of those alleles makes me cross-eyed. Thanks,

The 80 gram cinnamon is a female. She's the one I will keep.
