cinnamon pastels vs black pastels

ohernz Nov 21, 2008 05:34 PM

are cinnamons and blacks the same or two different, but closely related morphs?
is there any difference between a supper black pastel and a super cinnamon pastel? i mean, is the SBP darker than the SCP?
i have seen pics of black snakes and patternless brown snakes called both super black pastels and super cinnamon pastels...kind of confusing...my main point is, if i wnat to produce all black snakes, should i alwyas try with black pastels or it won't make any difference?

thanks

The Black Pastels make a Black Super and the Cinnamons make a dark Brown Super. I have 1.2 Cinnies and 1.1 Black Pastels and I am going to go both ways with them and see what I end up with. I will breed the Black Pastel male with the two Cinnie females and then breed my Cinnie male with the one Black Pastel female and fat chance but with any luck I will get all black Supers out of the Supers that are hatched from the 3 clutches. Any thoughts from the rest of you guys as to the Black being more dominate or will I end up with an even chance of having Brown Supers as well as Black Supers? Im not even sure how that works in a pundit square. Thanks for your thoughts.......
