It's not about any checkering whatsoever. It's about if the homozygous blood/diffused snakes have a tell-tale clear/translucent area in the middle portions of their ventrals as a 100% reliable indicator as to them being homozygous, or not. It seems that it is a "relatively" good indicator for a percentage of them when very young, but it is obviously not for all blood/diffuse based phenotypes. I couldn't make heads or tales from alot of the pics posted so far, but others where quite obvious.
Also, if non-blood/diffused animals displayed any translucent patches on their ventrals, this would also blow the theory completely out of the water..
