What's the difference?

Very nice pics BTW! I do think I see some of the differences with the pattern on the sides of the snake. Thanks!

If its not a genetic stripe then its just a name thrown in with the description ;).

So since mine is not a genetic stripe...she would be unlikely to pass the stripe down to her offspring? A pinstripe is a genetic stripe?

could you post a bigger picture, cause looking at that avatar is limiting.

But looking at it, i can tell that a spider, due to the side marking. and that spine stripe is really interesting, prove it out.. maybe it will pass down, maybe it wont. :)

spider also have this kinda white wash from belly to side. which pinstripe dont have.

A pinstripe is dominant, while a genetic stripe is a recessive.

a pinstripe is called a pinstripe not because of a stripe or anything down its back, its because the pattern looks like a bunch of pinstripes, like people have on their cars or bikes or w/e
