The Pinstripe pattern is very potent in terms of genetics, but the better the pinstripe you start with, the better your chances are to produce full pinstripe babies.

I have some animals with broken 50-60% pinstripes that consistently produce babies with 50-60% pinstripes and just occasionally produce a full pinstripe.

However, when breeding a full pinstripe to a partial pinstripe, you'll seem to get a higher percentage of full pinstripe babies.

To make a long story short, the amount of pinstriping on the parents will play a big role in the amount present in their offspring.
