    pied question

    I know the amount of white affects the price but what about the patten? What do yo look for in a pied? Is there low and high quality pieds? ( Based on the patern not the amount of white) and if so can somebody put up a pic?

    I've never seen anyone price, or pay a premium for pattern, unless it's some paradoxing. (Strictly speaking if it's just a pied, not with another morph in it)

    I have seen some really dirty looking browned out adults who lost all the oranges. Some retain it better. No idea though how to tell how much they will change that I know of. I'd say buy one with a pattern you like. More white, less white, no white. Even better get one with another gene so you know the colors will be more predictable and you get two genes to play with. Just my 2 cents

    The funny thing is if you're buying it as breeding stock the amount of white has little to no determination of how high or low white the hatchlings will be. High white parents can produce low white hatchlings just as easily and as frequently as high white hatchlings.
