I'm sure you would love to get more stripers and reverse stripers, but if breeding a reverse to a normal striper, it would make it practically impossible to determine how the gene was inherited, if even possible.

Probably the only sure way would be to breed him to a normal and see what happens. If you get all normals, they should be considered hets and be bred back to each other or dad to prove this out.



These first and second generation captive animals can have multiple forms of striping and inheritance.. you may breed a striper to a normal and end up getting stripers from something the normal was hiding... tricky.. lol.. and more fun!





take care, Joe
