You have to be careful, as thick borders != Okeetee.

There are many definitions of what makes an Okeetee phase but I believe all of them require more than just thick borders.



From Kathy Love's book:



- bug husky race (pg 147), deep red dorsal blotches ringed by well-defined jet black borders. The ground color ranges from russet to bright orange and is contrasted clearly and cleanly by distinctive black (pg 148)



The belly has a prominent squarish black checkerboard pattern covering it, and tends to have a white ground color for most of its length (pg 149)



The corn on the cover of Kathy's book is what I would describe as an amel Okeetee - as it looks like an amel version of that description. A lot of corns sold as "reverse okeetee" I don't think would fit the definition of Okeetee at all if they were not amel.

I decided my old sig was too big.
