Yes, that is a DEFINITE "guttata" characteristic for sure, which emoryi is a very close relative of, so I know for a FACT that Corns have these parallel lines on their subcaudals past the vent. But I do not know for a fact if a Texas does or not. This didn't make too much sense to me either. Which was another reason why I said what I did, even though it displayed other traits that are certainly indicative of linheimeri(Texas Rat)...hmmmm?



Too bad the only Texas I have here is leucistic, that won't do any good here in this case..LOL!
