Genesis 30:41-42

41Moreover, whenever the 1stronger of the flock 2were mating, Jacob would place the rods in the sight of the flock in the gutters, so that they might 3mate by the rods;

42but when the flock was feeble, he did not put them in; so the feebler were Laban’s and the 4stronger Jacob’s.
