Is a Pinstripe co-dom or dom?

[hoo-t]

It genetics it is incomplete dominate. Meaning that it still produces the normals offspring. A true dominate gene would have no super form (i.e require two copies of the gene to produce all morphed animals) and produce all morphs.

In short it is dominate or as dominate as we have seen in ball pythons

Not quite. Within ball python breeders' terminology, the difference between dominant and co-dominant only concerns the APPEARANCE of the het vs homozygous animals. The results of breeding remain the same. Assuming that pin is dominant, a heterozygous animal would produce 50% pin and 50% non-pin, and a homozygous animal would produce 100% pin. The het and the homo would appear the same.

The reason there is so much confusion about whether pins (and spiders) are dominant is that there is really no way to PROVE it. There would have to be a super form to confirm co-dominant. If dominant, you could become more and more confident that you have a homozygous animal through repeated breedings producing 100% pins, but you couldn't definitively say that it IS homozygous.
