    Genetic Marker?

    Hey peeps. I spotted a Pinstripe in a pet store today. I noticed that towards the tail there is a spot (which is on both sides) that has pigment loss. See pic below. Could this be a genetic marker for something or just random? I have never seen this before. Have any of you?

    That is very odd! Looks like bleach was spilled on it. I don't know of any kind of genetic marker it could be, but I'd sure pick it up and try to prove something out.

    Looks like a partial ringer. You can even see the orange bordering the white. Cool

    Hard choice, my gut says something sort of paradox or a non-genetic ringer. If you really want to get him and play around with the ringer stuff you could. Otherwise, save up for that girl you want.
