Rich Kensinger posted on KingSnake where he bred a pastel lesser het pied to a pied and produced both all white lesser pied and lesser het pied. There was a follow-up post to mine reporting that Kahl produced some pied lesser that aren’t all white so apparently it varies in lesser pieds.


heres what u wrote about it:

The hypo super mojave is nice and clean.

And odd thing is even just one copy of lesser seems to be enough to turn a homozygous pied to 100% white (at least RDR's first and the two just hatched by Rich Kensinger, saw a post that Kahl has some with a little color on them though). So technically not a BEL if it only has one copy of lesser but I understand a 100% white pied is a whole other level of white.
