Does anyone calculate out a few generations? I'm pretty sure the percentages multiply. So an example would be getting to a firefly axanthic from a firefly and axanthic. I've calculated that its a 25% chance of getting a firefly het. axanthic. Then assuming I had a clutch of 8 that would mean two of them. Out of those 2 I would then have a 75% chance of having a male. Then the chance of getting a firefly axanthic by breeding that male back to momma is 12.5%. So 0.25 x 0.75 x 0.125= .0234 x 100= 2.34% chance that I get a firefly axanthic in 2 generations.

At least I think that is right!
