Het by nature means looks completely normal but carries the gene that when it encounters a like kind gene may throw homozygous offspring. We have het piebalds and the real deal and have no marker on the hets other than our line do have some neat splotchy odd patterns.

This is one I have thats has the markers some believe are an indicator for the Pied gene.
Notice the clear belly 3-scales wide?
Take it for what its worth, some here are very sceptical of this.
However, if you had to pick between 2- 50% Het. Pied females, 1 with the markers and 1 without- I would go for the 1 with them.
I think even the sceptics would also.
