Eddy is 2 yrs. old & was kept very small. He looked like a normal.
Since i've had him & he's growing, his sides seem to be lightening up some. I'm just curious?
I'm wondering if you are familiar with the genetics of your animal.

Pieds are a recessive trait, which means that you have to have two het for pied animals breed together to make a visual pied. A visual pied will look like a pied right out of the egg.

So what you have is a male het for Pied, so to make pieds, you would need a female het for pied to breed it to to produce visuals.
