What do you think?

This girl is very light and her belly is completely white. Do these look like pied markers to you? She came from a group of hets that were mixed up in a move.

it does look like het pied markers but not all het pieds have the markers and some normal balls have the het pied markers so unless you know the snake has one pied parent there is no way to tell without breeding it

Mixed up hets, ouch.. It certainly looks like an excellent example of a het Pied though. I would say if its a case of mixed up hets and you didnt get any Normals in the mix then chances are 90% or better that it is one of your het Pieds. Jay

I purchased her as 100% het Albino, but I also bought a group of normal girls from the same guy that he claims were hets mixed up during a move. I do trust him and I have done several successful transactions with the guy, but now I am not sure if I want to take the time to prove her out. HOWEVER, if she ends up being a double het, it could really pay off. Hmmmmm.....what to do?
