I agree,Pastel. Very nice one though.

To get a super you need to breed two regular pastels together. It's a looker though.

yes that is one way to get them; however, there are many other ways to get them as well, just remember that both parents need to have the pastel gene to them so pastel x pastel would be the cheepest way to get one, but you could do a pastel x super pastel, bumble bee x pastel, pastel lesser x pastel Mojave; ect. Any time both parents have a pastel or a Super pastel (2x your odds) there is a chance for supers.

Also Super x Super = Super

So a killer bee (super pastel spider)x a super pastel= 1/2 killer bees 1/2 super pastel

Just some tips hope they help.

Also as far as the post goes I would say it looks like a normal pastel as well. What were the parents you used to get it??? If you don't mind me asking?
