What is the punnet for a double het to normal.... maybe Jeff F?

Hi All,

Just wondering, if a het for snow (or het for albino AND het for axanthic) male is bread to a normal female, are the offspring 50%'ers for snow? Wondering how the genes got distributed. This I would imagine goes for any double het for simple recessive genes. Thanks for everyone's input.
