"what are the odds that all 18 hatch as normals if both parents were really hets for albino?"


three quarters raised to the 18th power = very tiny chance

(the odds of any one of them being normal phenotype is 75%, the odds of two out of two is (0.75 x 0.75), the odds of three out of three is (0.75 x 0.75 x 0.75), etc
