Poss Het Pied Challenge

# 2 is the one I consider definite...I think the chances he's not a het pied are almost nil. # 1 is the only female, alas, lol.

Thanks for the help, guys, it's interesting to see folks' opinions. :)

Yes

Before I saw the belly of #2, I picked #2 from the pattern alone. It has more "melty" pattern than the others, that is more indicative of het pieds.

Four is also close based on pattern alone.

#2 for sure. Classic markings. #4 also has some markings but not all.

I voted #1 for the weird flame/ringer mark, but #2 is a close second for me for the weird ringer mark and the train tracks.

Also, since #1 is the only female, shes probably the only one I would keep.

I 'm gonna say two? Not because I have any experience in genetics and breeding and spotting morphs (im learning) but because my new male ball is a het pied, and his belly looks remarkably like that. Amateur guess (Y)

2 and 4 if you are gambling. Keep in mind that the so called pied markers are not gospel. It shows up in certain lines but is never a gaurantee. The fact that this was a poss het to het ghost breeding doesnt stack the odds in your favor at all. But if your gonna hold any back to try and prove it out i would say 2 and 4.

X2 they all are good looking snakes

It was a full ghost to proven het pied breeding. ;)
1 and 2 are being held back, because 1 is the only female. Hopefully, in a couple of years or so, I'll find out if 1 is really het for pied...
I'll breed her to a pied first, to make sure I'm not wasting my time. ^_^

Im going with #4
My normal female has belly markers like 1 and 4 so if either of them are het pied that means my girl might be too :O

Rule out #2?? That one has the most "classic" "alleged" het pied markers out of any of those snakes lol.

I'm gonna go with #2. Those are the most intense tracks I've seen other than my proven male het pied.
