Het Pied markers fact or fake

[Paul's Pieds]

I have seen the most heated debates on this subject. If it is a normal or pastel it will almost certainly have markers. However, some morphs the rules change. I have a het pied leopard for example and it has a strange belly pattern, not like the usual parallel lines. It is a wiggly single line of dark scales down the belly. Other morphs i am not experienced enough to say.

Often people selling a possible het pied with markers will tell you they are very important. Someone selling a possible het without markers will often tell you they are not reliable and to take your chance.
