You did not work under the framework that the genes were independent units. They are. Getting a result for say spitting fire has no effect on the probability of getting one of the other traits. Thus they can not all be assumed to be a part of the same pool.
Ah, I see. That is how you ended up with 64 possibilities. But 8 potential phenotypes. Jeez it's too early in the morning for me and I'm not even finishing my thoughts.

I misread the genotype of Ankylotops so my answer is wrong.

Yes.
Don't worry, you know, I like "night owls". Haha
I don't have that luxury anymore. It's early riser for the job. 🙂
