Making Reebops: a model for meiosis
... There could be some identical babies. You have 8 pairs of alleles involved (including the sex-determining pair). For each gene, there are usually two possibilities for the phenotype, or 3 in the case of nose colour. So the possible number of combinations you could have is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x ...
