    A dinker is something that you're not 100% sure if there's something special about but has some potential to prove out something new. :)

    A dinker is a normal with an unusual pattern that one feels might be genetic, so they decide to put the dinker into their breeding projects to see if it proves out. :)

    Technically every morph available today was at one point considered a dinker. I remember watching Brian from BHB talking about the big risk he was taking purchasing the first pinstripe. ;)

    It's amazing what some breeders have found dinker worthy and have had them prove out. A lot of them I would pass up without a second look, others are pretty obvious, some of them prove out, some don't. If I had some extra rack space I wouldn't mind getting a couple of male dinkers to see what happens.

    I really like the new "busy" morph that ACReptiles has been using. It looks great on his lessers. He posts them a lot on his facebook page.
