The approach also works with multiple alleles:

Paradigm x arabesque het Sharp albino -->

is broken down into

normal x arabesque -->
1/2 arabesque
1/2 normal

and

paradigm x het Sharp albino -->
1/2 normal (50% probability het Sharp albino, 50% probability het boawoman caramel)
1/4 paradigm
1/4 Sharp albino

Result:
1/2 arabesque - 1/2 normal = 1/4 arabesque
1/2 arabesque - 1/4 paradigm = 1/8 arabesque paradigm
1/2 arabesque - 1/4 Sharp albino = 1/8 arabesque Sharp albino
1/2 normal - 1/2 normal = 1/4 normal
1/2 normal - 1/4 paradigm = 1/8 paradigm
1/2 normal - 1/4 Sharp albino = 1/8 Sharp albino

I wish this forum would do real forklines. Then I'd only have to write "1/2 arabesque" and "1/2 normal" once instead of three times.
