    Genetic scenario

    Doesn't have to do with balls, but my genetics odds are off anyway. I'll use balls to make it simpler.

    Say I breed a mojave pastel to a pastel... what would I get??

    Re: Genetic scenario

    Pastel, mojave, normal, and pastel mojaves... 25% odds of each. But in reality you could end up with all normals, all pastels, all mojaves, or all pastel mojaves... Or any combo of them.

    Actually, you could get Normals, Pastels, Super Pastels, Mojaves, Pastel Mojaves and Super Pastel Mojaves.

    Sorry about the odds part, but I am too busy to draw out the square right now.

    Re: Genetic scenario

    Both parents carry pastel gene... so it breaks down like this
    12.5% super pastel
    12.5% super pastel mojave
    25% pastel
    25% pastel mojave
    12.5% mojave
    12.5% norm
