    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

This little female I picked up from a friend that has a pair of het pied breeders.
he produced 1 male last year from them that was about 30% white.
and this year this was the only one produced from them this year!
she has 3 small spots over her body that are solid white.
would you say low white pied female?

if it were produced from 100%het to 100% het (which is what i got when you said they produced a pied last year) the this little on would be 50% het pied. The Pied gene is both a color morph as there normal color is muddled and looks odd and then a pattern morph for the white patches. This little one appears to be a normal looking animal that may or may not carry the Pied gene. Hope this helps in any way.
Just for reference this is a low white pied and no matter the % of white a pied always has a white belly.

Note the muddled normal pattern

Yes to all of this except it would be 66% chance of being het pied. Not 50%. Very cool looking normal.
 
I got real excited when I got a ringer het pied thinking that someone accidentally sent me a very low white pied by accident.

I also got excited when the powerball reader told me nothing but "Please see customer service".

Both were duds. Het pied is still a het pied, but I didn't win the powerball.
