Here is the belly picture you asked for, I used a picture frame to take it and it has some reflection but you still get a good shot, let me know what you think it is....

I would guess it is a banded matley - see what Don thinks, since I don't work with those myself. Did you say you get regular motleys from that group? If it was mine, I woould breed it with a motley to see what happens, although I would prefer to breed it with one that looks just like him.

Do you have some normal colored ones (or oher colors) with the same pattern as this?

Cable Modem makes for fast uploads LOL. This guy is from a group of Muti-het corns that I started trying to produce a Striped Snow Corn about 8 years ago. The Original was a ZigZag Bubble Gum Snow x a Normal Striped Corn, but from that breeding a ton of different babies were produced so the genetics were not clear. Yes there are motley's that come from this group and a lot of banded looking babies, but I never thought much of the banding until this one popped out. Each year it seems to be something different with them. I could not produce a normal corn if I wanted to, but instead they come out like a rainbow gone wild?
Thanks, I will send a picture over to Don.

. . . I didn't get it. The way spam filters are these days if you sent it, you might have made it to a prohibition list or something.
