Are you saying that color and pattern begin at the head and works its way down as it develops? I can see what Jim does and what he is hoping for. It died but with that lower third being clear of pattern it could at least prove that his hets are hets. I can't say. I've got my years in but I'm no expert. When I have cut open colubrid eggs I have never seen where pattern started at the head and developed downward. The pattern was always equally developed over the entire body. What pattern is showing does not look like the pieds I've seen.
