That's the toughy. This is a 2 gene combo, and the particular animal shows none of the markers that the parent has, that created this. As far as we know, nobody else has this type of animal. It's worth the risk. When someone is selling a Super Stripe Black Pastel Desert whatever, that only holds a certain odd on reproducing itself, and we're selling an animal that already does some very weird stuff with cinnamons and a couple other combos we refuse to show.... I think the market will not hurt. That Black Pastel/specter/whatever else cross just shares the black pastel/cinny similarity on genes, and that's about it.

Anthony can try to reproduce it... all I can say is good luck on it.

We will keep our project and work with it over the course of the next half decade or so, and see what comes of it before selling. We'd like to get a full glimpse of this genes full potential, as well as a super if there is one, before releasing one. If someone finds one and starts selling before we get a chance... that's the risk we're willing to take. We want to see it's potential and what exactly this animal is before selling.
