i dont think thats possible, i get those all the time. i dont have 1 variegated breeder. so its either random in relation to the pattern or recessive and i have lots of carriers lol

Just for general information, this is where I get a lot of info on colors and markings: http://www.hawthorn.org.uk/varieties.asp

Keep in mind that these are "show quality" standards and that your rat(s) may or may not have all of the specified markings or colorings. :)
