Personally, I am more inclined to think that serious breeder are being quite selective and that is obvious in the fact that they do not sell crap animals like $75 pastels and $300 lessers. Any closet breeder can slap two animals together for the intent of making a quick buck and co-coms are a great way to do that cause you get instant results. Investing a couple thousand in a pied is a little different (at least to me).
Yup, one of many good points in your posts.

A good debate on the pied 'marker'.

It is quite a reasonable hypothesis that the 'marker' is, indeed, due to selective breeding. A thought that cannot be completely overlooked.

Excellent examples of the b.p. ventral to highlight the discussion.
