    Depends on your specific taste some have a solid dorsal stripe and some have a pretty busted up pattern

    Most pinstripes, like spiders, are good eaters.

    But don't quote me on that. It's just observation not based on any statistical analysis or anything.

    Re: What makes a good Pinstripe?

    Pinstripes are one of those morphs that it's really going to come down to your own personal preference. Busy patterned or reduced patterned? Light or dark?

    For me, I love very light pinstripes. I also thought that I wanted a reduced pattern one, but I have to say, that I really do like the lacey look of a busier patterned one as well.

    Re: What makes a good Pinstripe?

    I think the questions should be what doesn't make a good pin stripe. they are IMO one of the coolest colour and pattern morphs. as much potential for combos as spiders with out the concern of wobbles.

    That pinstripe there always makes me want to sneak up behind you - bonk you in the head, grab said pinstripe and dash away laughing maniacally.

    Re: What makes a good Pinstripe?

    I breed specifically for a solid dorsal stripe (no breaks) with clean patterning thruout.

    I like them busy.

    Reduced pattern ones are also awesome, but I prefer pattern in this morph, since that is mainly what it is known for.
