The only snakes you would have to breed out to see what genes there are are 90% or higher white pieds (and this is only in some cases) or "White Weddings" which are all white pieds. I hope this helps! Of course it's possible he has hets which would need to be proven by breeding.
    I'm pretty sure a white wedding is the easiest pied to ID, unless you're talking about any tertiary morphs. A white wedding is a spider pied that has no markings (some do and some do not, like high white vs low white normal pieds). Spider pieds with markings are almost exclusively 95%+ white and typically only have pattern on their head as far as I've heard of. I've done some research on these as I love the all white snakes and coincidentally happen to have a pair of snakes that could produce these (0.1 pied, 1.0 spider het pied proven breeder), though I dont have any real plans to breed.

    It would be hard to say if a white wedding also has something like pinstripe, I guess, but I don't really know if other genes would impact it at all or not.

    I've not heard of any other combos that make all white pieds, though if you know of any proven ones, I'd love to hear which ones!
