Being a well-rounded geneticist, you also maintain a colony of chickens. In a cross between a female chicken from a true-breeding strain with three toes per foot and a male from a true-breeding strain with seven toes per foot, all of the F1 progeny have five toes per foot.

Based on the information that toe counts should appear in the F2 generation and at what frequencies?
