What dummy parted with those?

I have one that is very similar except the bands go all the way round, no gaps on the back.

The guy I purchased them from proved the trait genetic, his name is Tony Dongarra.

When the original 100% striped female was bred back to her father 3 of 5 neonates had some level of striping though none at 100%. This to me reflected that the trait could be bred out though not in a simple mendilian fashion.

That doesn't exclude the possibility that it is a simple codominant trait that appeared by mutation in the striped female, or more probably in the gametes that produced her.

Doesn't Richard Evans have some "banded" hogs that look like this (without the stripe, that is)?
