This is gonna be a mix for anyone planning working w/ them: I'm thinking the only tessaras (at least 90%+) that become available in the next 3 years will just have one copy of the gene, being visual but just 'het for' giving only half clutches of the pattern. It will take another gen after that to have 'pure' tessaras from breeding them together, and it'd still be a guess if the offspring had 1 or both copies.
Let's see what the next 2 years market for them will be. There will be plenty time for lots ppl to get into working with them before it's played out. Years. I'd hope to get one in 2 yrs, but it might be three+ yrs before they are ~$300 which is most I'd buy one for. The market might not fall out fast as ppl think even tho is a dominant pattern. There's too many morphs that will gain from having this look and the time for ppl to get them and actually combine into multi-gene morphs.

I SECOND THAT STRONGLY!!!! I have produced several Pinstripe Motleys and all look exactly like that photo. I could be wrong but I would bet my money that its Motley.

IMO...There is way to much motley in the stripe.

Upper right hand corner


Hypo Motley/Pinstripe...stripes clean like Tessera but not related in any way. OH yeah! not a full stripe on the tale either.


This is also why Tessera is going to be an interesting challenge for all of us. It brings the Bernie Madoffs out of the wood work to sell genetics that may not be as they appear.

Those are a perfect example of the difference in the width of the center stripe on a stripe vs a pinstripe motley.

Thank you Nanci. The pinstripe versions of motley are really unique against stripes. Tessera takes on the pinstripe look and then as seen with the new Sunkissed Tessera the stripe gets wide, weird huh!

I agree with Don S. in a personal Email, Tessera has thicker black borders against the stripe then stripes or motley/pinstripes.

Dentist way,yeah. They file and space your teeth. "Pull outs" as they call it way,no. They just slap it on. lol
