Het Pied "Markers"--Fact or Fiction?

[jkobylka]

But do the ones with markers out of a het pied clutch always prove out, is the better question???

That really is the real question...

Makes sense to me, another thing to note is that the father is pretty banded, so I wonder if that makes a difference on the pattern of the markers?

I think that any time there is a genetic pattern morph at work it can certainly affect markers. The only experience I really have is with pastels, they certainly do not show markers the same way or as strongly because the pastel tends to clear the belly of pattern.
