Possible super pinstripes

[Rat160]

So my buddy Tom at northwestreptiles.com bred a pinstripe to a pinstripe and produced some possible super pins. He is going to be keeping them all to prove them out.

I saw a male he produced today and thought it was so cool I asked him if I could post pic of it on here.

It to me is the perfect pinstripe. Full dorsal stripe, and I mean full, not one break. Very busy pattern, well here are some pic I took with my phone.

Let me know what you think.






Please excuse any errors sent from my crap phone.

That's a great looking pin. But there is only one way to know if he is a super or not. Gonna have to wait until he's old enough to breed.

Yep that's why he Is keeping all of them to prove them out.

I have a pin that has a perfect stripe as well. Pin is dominant there is no super unless someone has proven this out which I have seen no evidence of. Its the spider story all over again. It would be nice but I doubt it. Looks like most other pins as far as I'm concerned.

BHB would be the guy to talk to. I know a couple years ago he thought he had a super pin, produced nothing but pins with it for the whole season at the time, but I don't know what ever happened as far as if it continued to do that or ended up throwing some normals down the road.

actually to be dominant it HAS to have a homozygous (super) form that looks exactly like the heterozygous (het). Other wise it's still not proven what it actually is, like most of what we call dominant.

27 eggs, all pinstripe, never one normal. chances of a heterozygous animal doing that are over 1 in 100 million. I never asked him what he did with the male. I know he has some possible super pin females he showed me, obviously they are going to take quite a bit longer to prove out.

Took the words right out of my mouth

Half of the pinstripes and pinstripe crosses I produce have full dorsal stripes. Sorry to rain on your parade. Also, pinstripes have been around for over a decade now; if there was a super form, there would be literally tens of thousands of them around.

I rarely see pinstripes with a perfect stripe like this. Again its just my opinion that this is the perfect pinstripe for me. And there is evidence of super pins as well as other dominate traits. Looks like a pin but throws all pins no normals. Again only time and breeding will tell which is what he plans to do.

There may be but no one takes the time to prove them out.

All I know is I think its a great looking pin and im excited to see it prove out to be a super.

"There may be but no one takes the time to prove them out. "

Really? You don't think that with the tens of thousands of pins produced, that NO ONE bred sibling back to sibling to try to prove out a super?
