    The white going up the sides. Not the best example and I would question if it was from a proven line or if it was an import but it does appear to be a calico.

    The random white scales on the side determine this morph. It's highly variable and some have as many as just a few white scales and some have many. It's like the pied in that a low white calico(like that one in the add) can produce a high white calico(like the one as below). I hope this helps
