First time she was ever bred by anything or first time she ever bred successfully? The reason I ask again is the results do not make sense given the results you clearly have. It just doesn't make sense.

A male that may have previously bred that female could certainly have made a sperm deposit that may have hung around until this years ovulation. The other possibility, and I HATE to mention this because it comes up too often is, parthenogenesis.

Otherwise, the four babies that are clearly something special, given the 15 non-visual babies, do not fit into the "Paradigm" type scenario where the two different simple recessives reside on the same location.
