Pinstripe is a codominant gene; he either has it or he doesn't, there is no het. And being born from a candino doesn't necessarily affect his genetics either. Candy is a recessive trait (like albinism), meaning you need two genes present to visually express it, but it's also compatible with albino. Meaning if you breed an albino and a candy together instead of getting all normal looking double hets you will get all candinos-- animals that have one copy of the albino gene and one copy of the candy gene on the same allele and express a mix of both traits.
Since he was born from an albino pin female bred to a candino male, there are no uncertainties with babies being hets. The only possible results from that pairing would be albinos, albino pins, candinos, and candino pins, which are all relatively easy to tell apart after the first couple of sheds, so safe to say your male isn't keeping any secrets.
