    As with any DH to DH breeding statically the odds are Very GOOD..i.e. breeding Pewter X Pewter still give's each animal that isn't a Double Homo a 66% chance of being a Het for both traits which means in something like a Pewter x Pewter breeding each egg only has a 6.25% chance at being a normal..which means there is a 93.75% chance that every animal will carry at least one copy of some Morph gene.
