I say f1 is the parents that already HAVE the genes in them, f2 is the "dble hets",and f3 should be 25/25/25/25. Of all these added up, 75% should be morphs if dbl hets, 25% if single het. It is very important to try this with THE BEST, most likely DOUBLE morph extreme to begin with or you will only get 50% morphs...and will muddy up the experiment. I think 3x the number of morphs would be obvious enough to discount variability but you may need more than one clutch--admittedly. Jeff
