    Would you consider these markers? And explain why or why not please

    Ok first I want everyone to know that I know a snake having markers don't mean its 100% het for pied. I was wondering because I see folks post pics and I'm not understanding what the marker exactly is. Let me know what you guys see.

    Unless you bought a 100% het pied, it's probably not. (but I think you know that already )

    Those markers to me do not like the classic "het pied" markers. Het pied markers usually have long black lines along the lower abdomen instead of a more speckled belly.
    Even still, not all het pieds have the markers and not all markers are het pieds.

    Unless you are getting a great deal, probably not. You are must better off picking up a proven 100% het.

    Make sure the parents were Het. Pied x Pied
    (From a reputable breeder is your best shot)

    I personally don't have any het pieds, but I've seen quite a few and have a trained eye for the markers.

    Here's a good reference for what het pied markers look like.

    Edit: I also have a normal with the markers, and is definitely a normal.
    Just realized I forgot to paste the link.
