There are two points to the Kahl stripeline:

The actual striping is a recessive trait for tail striping so both parents must carry the actual gene to produce a striped baby. Std genetic odds apply, two het parents = 25% homozygous for stripe, 50% het for stripe and 25% homozygous for normal. Since you can't tell the hets from the normals, each is a 67% het.

Also, stripe line individuals (I believe females) have been known to throw larger litters. So even if not actually het for stripe, quite possibly still gonna throw those larger litters. I don't have any actual numbers to back that up, only conversations with Pete.
