Pied or Normal?

**Jessica Loesch** · 08-13-2011, 11:53 PM

It's not a pied, as mentioned before there would be more orange color on the snake.

Certainly not a pied, but that is some mad blushing on the sides, there.

Do you mind flipping him off and taking a picture or two of his belly pattern? Particularly the mid-section and lower 1/2, down towards the tail?

Oooh I hope it is a het pied for you! Looks like it!

Just to show you, I have a wild caught normal who has a similar white spot

It sort of reminds me of one of the people in the myspace logo hehe

piebalds have their own sorta pattern and colour even if they're low white:

... What they said

Pied isn't just about white patches. You can have a ball with white patches that isn't a pied ... Like this neat thing here:

... He kind of looks like a pied, but not quite -- if you look at his patches of "normal" color, they're also of "normal" pattern, which actually isn't the case in a piebald.

Pieds have a very cool and unique pattern all their own, which actually gets highlighted in the no-white animals since there's no pesky white to distract your eye.

Here's my no-white pied girl:

Thanks everyone! This is what I was telling the peoples, but I said I'd post it(kind proving my points, lol).

Yes, that little white-ish patch is exactly what I think the white dot will look like hwen he grows up. I'll flip him 'off' and get some pics of his awesome belly for ya'll too.

I appreciate all the comments!

Even a Pied with no white is identifiable by its pattern. Yours is definitly a normal or Possible Het.

SIDE NOTE: This crazy high white just crawled out of the egg....seriously, like 10 minutes ago.
