Hi,



I produced 5 BPS with het pied markers this year from my mojave x normal breeding. The only thing is that they were bred to a pied the year before. SO MAYBE there was some sperm retention. I kept one female back and if worse comes to worse then I will produce some 100% hets with her.



There are enough poss het breedings around that she could have been from a 25% poss het clutch that no one wanted to keep and raise up.



My Pied male came from a pet shop male bred to a 100% het pied female!! That "normal" male has produced 6 pieds to date. So evidently was het pied and no one knew it.



With the number of DOM REC breedings occuring now I think you will find this happening much more. ie: het albino x het albino = clowns (happened this year), het pied x het pied = axanthic pieds (2xs this year). So there are a lot of genes floating around that no one knows are there till lightning strikes!!!
