    Sorry for the newbie question :( ....

    But could anyone give me guidance in regards to Piebald patterns and there prices.

    Im slightly confused with the "Low White" "High White" or " Extreme High Whites"

    It's exactly how it sounds. Piebald's are prized for the amount of "white" on their bodies. Some have so much it's a majority, some have so little it's barely visible. Prices go up the more white there is--although some people are fond of low-whites.

    That's pretty much the bottom line on it, the more white the more expensive, their patterns will vary extensively.... the amount of white on the adult pieds will guarantee very little on how their off spring will turn out, you could get low, med or high whites.

    Good luck finding what you are looking for

    I disagree that the high whites are more sought after. I think the low whites are HAWT!

    I agree as well. Their priced (usually) according to levels of white.
    IMO a med to med/hi say 60-70% with nice break up and a smiley face is the perfect Pied.

    High whites seem to be more expensive, but the low whites are definately better looking, here is my 2009 female:

    In my personal taste I prefer 60-70 % white with not so much pattern just some here and there.
