I know there are many color morphs in Tokays, but what about pattern morphs? A friend and I were wondering that when I noticed that her female had a striped tail like my boy Tornado. Most Tokays I see have color breaking up the lighter bands on their tails, but these have clear, clean stripes. Is it just because so few still have their full tails with original pattern as adults that this seems different to me?




I've seen 2 like the next picture (not mine) where their spots are more like lines down their backs and both were broken parallel down their spines.

I think the tail is normally striped and as you say, because many dont have the original tail anymore we don't see ir that much.
2nd pic is clearly regenerated.

For the second picture I meant the striping down it's back actually. I know the tails come back like that most of the time. I've seen striping on faces too, like under their eyes mostly, but those are so small I didn't figure them to count.

There's several morphs that affect pattern. Calico, granite, patternless, etc. As for the "striped" spots, I imagine if you found a pair with similar stripes, you could line breed them over a few generations and get it to a point where they were more developed.
