Are these stripes heritable?

I am hunting around for a future mate for this girl (next season) and am trying to determine the importance I should place on the stripe on her tail. As far as I know, she is not from a "stripe line" litter but is 66% poss het albino.

Has anyone had any success reproducing stripes like this (outside of the stripeline)? is it worth going after a male from the stripeline or one that has a similar stripe on his tail? Or, is the stripe on this snake (and any future offspring) just a product of random chance?

I appreciate any insight that anyone can offer...







Thanks for your time!
