Thanks for the replies guys, I think I will keep her, if nothing else because she has a good shot at producing butter stripes form me, but part of the reason I asked is that I am completely ignorant as to what is considered a "good" or "desirable" stripe pattern and also if the carmel stripe is something people like or just an ugly duckling. Sometimes i look at her and think that brown and gray is just kinda dull and ugly, and other times I think it is really neat and suttle, which emphasizes the pattern rather than just being all about the color. Clearly I think more people are interested in eye popping "wow" colors, so maybe there isn't much of a market for the carmel stripe, and that is what initially catches my eye too.
