I believe that you will get normals and normal split to fawn but I could be wrong there... still learning about genetics. I'm sure someone else will jump in here and tell you if I'm right or not.

This is what you will get though, with a visual fawn mom you will get normal split to fawn males only

50% Normal Females
50% Normal/Fawn Males

this pertians to fawn shaft tails but the genetic explaination is the same

In short ( :) ), find a split male for your fawn female or let them have babies and find a fawn female to pair with one of their baby boys.
