Very nice love the faded back, If it was a she i would say put her in with a pastel i might do it anyway if i had a female i pastel i wasnt using for any other projects. I can see him and a nice female pastel making some nice pastel babies.

Send him to me and I'm sure I'll be able to fit him in. I'll even pay for shipping! Just kiddin'. I'd keep him and maybe he'll fit in at some point.

Personally, I would hold onto him. I like his color and blushing black areas. I think I would throw him in with one of my wild type females. Most likely one with a clean pattern and light color... I've got a couple with a fair amount of blushing too that he might fit in with.

From this pairing I would hope the clutch is female heavy and (hopefully) the blushing and light colors are inherited by one or two. Raise up these females for future pairings with other morphs that could stand to be "cleaned up" and "blushed out". Mojaves, Pastels, YBs, Spiders (maybe), Pieds, Clowns (especially...hope for as much blushing along that dorsal stripe as possible), Albinos, Lessers, Butters.

I prefer blushed out patterns and light colors so this is just what "I" would do. It's a long term plan but with balls that's what it takes...right?
