>Further, from what I understand, each of those traits breeds true--you get mojaves (and lucys) from a mojaveXmojave.

Mojave, lesser, and the others do not breed true. If they bred true, all of the babies from a mojave X mojave mating would be mojave. Just like albino X albino breeds true by producing all albino babies. Instead, a mojave X mojave mating produces mojaves, normals, and (nearly) lucies. A lucy with two mojave mutant genes would breed true when mated with another lucy with two mojave mutant genes.
