Yep, het pieds supposedly have tram lines so the black goes in stripes unbroken down the belly, not sure i buy it meself 100% and not every royal with those markings is het pied either you just have to hope you're getting one if you buy it as such.

66% het pied with tram lines

I never go by "Het Markers".

I've found so many unusual patterns appearing on standard Captive Farmed Babies when sorting through seized shipments.

Your best bet is to buy from a reputable breeder and get some paperwork proving their genetics.

John Berry would be a good start.
