So I would think a BEL showing up under blacklight with larger patches of solid white would be the BEL pied. An old post floating around here said a pied BEL had an interesting side pattern on the body, but there really isn't any info to go on for it aside from test breeding later on.

Like Nikkubus said, some you can't fully ID, because another thing to keep in mind is that Black pastel, Cinny and Pieds can sometimes lead to an all white hatchling as well.
I have a blacklight but it's just a bulb from Walmart and it is not the best. I will buy one of those black light flashlights that you can but to look for scorpions. That will help a lot.

Yes I did not think it all the way though but with this at least I should be able to pick out pieds. Thanks.

I also kinda wish I had got a better breeder clown male. I got a single gene clown male. I could have got a lot more profit out of a 3-4 gene male and single gene female instead of the other way around.

Sice it will be a while anyway (hatchling) do you all think I should sale the clown male and upgrade to a multiple gene clown male now or just play it out with what I have?

What I have intended to pair with him is a leopard het clown female and a firefly het clown female.

I do have a few other females also but none that are het clown or visual.
