Male fitness is calculated as the total of how many offspring he has that survive to reproduce + ½ the number of kids his sibling has that survive to reproduce. Consider two brothers, Chirpy and Silent Bob. Chirpy mates with 2 females, and fertilizes 10 eggs from each female. Chirpy dies from parasites before he has the chance to mate again. Silent Bob lives to the end of the breeding season and mates with 5 females, fertilizing 10 eggs from each female. All eggs have a 10% chance to survive to become adult crickets. What is Chirpy's fitness?What is Silent Bob's fitness?
