im no expert, but if it works the same as leos you would have 50% norm. and 50% het then if you breed two hets together you would have 25% pied, 50% het and 25% norm

Mahaho is right on. To get piebalds, BOTH parents must be carrying the gene. Half your babies from your proposed cross would carry those genes from the for-sure het parent, but you wouldn't know which ones of the all normal-looking babies they were. Try it anyway, because there's a miniscule chance there are balls that are hets for piebaldism floating around already that the owners don't know about, and if your 'normal' happen to be one, then your chances would be in the 25% range for getting a piebald baby.

You can predict if you will get a bp morph by using a punnet square, only if you know what kind of morph your bp's parents were

With petco there is no telling. I got a leo from there that was a reg. phase and it turned out to be an albino het, i breed him with an albino female and go a couple albino babes out of her. Here is the and ex of the square they were talking about. The (A) is the norm gene and the (a) is the het gene the (AA) is the full norm the (Aa) is a het and the (aa) is the (in your case) Piebald. It starts to get complicated if you add more genes like say a pie bald het and an albino het then you have to deal with dominate, resesive and dominate resesive genes, its harder to predict what your going to get. Thats when you can get new or odd cross morphs or you could get all norms. I'm sorry if i did not get the terminology right but you get the point.
