I'm leaning towards pied for that one, since the spots are too big to be variegated.

Right now I've got nearly 30 mice [including 10 pups, hopefully some will be longhair. Since I don't own any snake at the moment, I try to keep their number low], though most of them are regular pied agouti-base colours, nothing that interesting :rolleyes: I've also got brindles, but all of them are either undermark [yellow and change colour all the time] or very overmark [agouti like], no proper stripes yet.
The closest I've got to a BEW is a banded pied with cinnamon spot on her tail base and right eye. Still pretty neat though.
 
Here is one of my nicer marked brindles:

Like you I get the really yellow ones and the really over marked (agouti looking) ones. Then some times I get a really nice even marked one. When I started breeding mice 6(or was it 7?) years ago I started with a brindle buck and pied black doe. learned the genetics and that has helped with other animals genetics.
