Pastel Axanthics...How?

[Kebs]

Im wondering how exactly the genetics work. I realize that this combination is not something you can figure out using a simple punnett square. So say I breed a Pastel het Axanthic to a Axanthic. I should get some Pastel Axanthics. How would this work. A Pastel het Axanthic would be "Pa". A Axanthic is "aa". If this were simple genetics you would produce 50% Pa and 50% aa. Niether of which would be Pastel Axanthics. Would Pastel Axanthics be "Paa"? So basically I'm confused, please help haha

You need to use a 16 square punnet to figure out the odds.

Ralph Davis as well as many other sites explain the concept very well.

I wish there were a program for it

Actually if you were using p's to represent the Pastel gene, and a's to represent Axanthics, then the Pastel Het Axanthic would be PpAa and the Axanthic would be PPaa. Hopefully that will help you to set up your square.
