I'll give my opinion if it's ok with Asherah? It is that pied markers is something that we look for but those markers are not a definitive way to identify het pied animals. The reasoning is some true het pieds won't necessarily have "pied markers" and some normals that aren't true het pieds can have markers. The real definitive way to determine a true het is to breed it to another het pied or visual pied. On top of that, it is the word of a truly honest breeder or a reputable breeder or both.And also, the pied gene has a distorting effect on patterning.
