Lavender X Striped Amel

I was under the impression that if a male Lavender breeds with a female Striped Amel, the babies produced would be all Classics het Amel het Striped.

(1) If the babies turned out to visually be a mix of regular Amels and Classics instead, may I know what the genetic mix of the parents probably is please?
​

(2) If the Amels produced from this batch breed with each other, what would the resulting babies be?

(3) If the Classics produced from this batch breed with each other, what would the resulting babies be?

(4) If an Amel and a Classic produced from this batch breed with each other, what babies would then result?

Thank you very much for your help in solving my confusion!
 
A lavender bred to an amel stripe would result in, at minimum, normals het amel lavender stripe.

If you get amels and normals, that means your lavender is het amel. All the normals are still het amel lavender stripe. The amels are het lavender stripe.

If you bred two amel babies together you would get:

amels
amel stripes
opals
opal stripes

If you bred two normal offspring together you could get:

normals
amels
lavenders
stripes
amel stripes
opals
lavender stripes
opal stripes

If you bred an amel and a classic together, the potential offspring would be the same as if you bred to classics together. The difference would be in the distribution of the morphs as you'd be more likely to have more babies showing the amel trait than with two normals.
