Spector/specter (spelling isn't my strong point) MAY be the same thing as whirlwind. At any rate, either combined with yellow belly makes a super stripe. I've also heard that super stripe X normal only produces the two superstripe parent types (no normals or super stripes). So it's looking like yellow belly and spector/specter/whirlwind may be alleles; different mutations of the same gene. I believe an Ivory has a stripe so if it help maybe think of a super stripe as an Ivory with more color. Not sure if anyone has produced the homozygous specter/spector/whirlwind yet but maybe we'll get to see what that looks like this year. You should be able to breed that homozygous animal to an ivory and produce 100% super stripe clutches.
