The probabilities listed above are per egg. I.E. you have a 25% chance of getting a pied in any given egg when breeding het to het.

In any given egg there is a 75% chance you will not get a pied. So take .75 and raise that value to the number of eggs you get.

Ex 8 egg clutch: .75^8 = .100 = 10% chance of not getting a single pied in the entire clutch.

Ex 4 egg clutch: .75^4 = .316 = 31.6% chance of not getting any pieds in the entire clutch.
never thought to look at it that way...when you put it THAT way the outcomes don't seem so bleak!
