It's either a pinstripe or it's not, and if you bought it as a normal chances are it is. If the store told you it may have a pinstripe gene, I'd say you might not be all set. As far as the behavior, if you moved to japan shipped in a box, and then placed in a home you've ever seen before, you'd explore right? That's all he's doing, just leave him alone, I'd say if he's not hiding or relaxing within a few hours then you should double check your husbandry. Pics would be helpful
