Computers eat this sort of stuff up for a snack. If you like I can run the simulation for you. In the meantime, you can set up the simulation yourself. It is like flipping a coin 35 times.

No Males 1/8
1 Male 2 females 3/8
2 Males 1 female 3/8
No Females 1/8
Now you need to deal with the 35
Take each of the probabilities and multiply by 35
No males = 1/8 * 35 = 4.375
1 M 2 Fe = 3/8 * 35 = 13.125
2 M 1 Fe = 3/8 * 35 = 13.125
3 M = 1/8 * 35 = 4.375
Total = 35.
Just in case you are interested, I'll post a simulation of a million trials to see how close they come to the theoretical expectations. I do this in comments a bit later.
It should come to about 1/8, 3/8 3/8 and 1/8. We'll see if it does.
The simulation you seek would be coin tossing. Heads and Tails will give exactly the same results.
