girls - will all be tortie - cos of the red gene from dad, and will probably all be black torties (with or without tabby - but probably with)

boys - will be black. (you can't get red boys as mum doesn't have any red in her and for boys you need two red genes (I believe)

if you add in dilute carrying in both parents (needed in both to show) then

girls - black tortie (+- tabby)
blue cream (+- tabby) - basically a grey tortie
boys - black or grey

and it goes on but I'd just go with the top set and anything extra is a bonus.
ah thats wicked thank you...i guess tortie is very common in girlies then?
if theres a blue we are keeping him if not....its gonna be sooooo hard decideding which one to keep, thats the bit in dredding.
