Very nice animals but you are incorrect with your traits there. The sterling is actually the pewter lesser, the pewter lesser is the super pastel lesser, and the pastel lesser is correct. Very nice animals Im sorry to be negative but I felt I should say something.

johnmartino Jun 24, 2010 10:35 PM

I have no problem with criticism but i believe you are incorrect. How could my pewter be a super pastel lesser? It is a pastel lesser cinny? Wheres your cinny in there? And what im calling the sterling is a super pastel lesser cinny. Any one else care to input? Am i right? I was always a boa guy and have only been doing balls for a few years but i thought i was correct.

daktaari Jun 25, 2010 12:17 AM

Looks right to me, John. Nice work.

Thanks Mike. The father was one of yours. Thanks.

serpentmorphs Jun 25, 2010 07:01 PM

OK so your parents were a pewter x pastel lesser correct???? The Sterling may be an ugly sterling but im sure that all sterlings have vanishing patterns. When your "pewter lesser" doesn't produce any cinnamons for you or who ever you sell or trade with dont be shocked.

johnmartino Jun 25, 2010 10:33 PM

Whatever. Your missing the cinny influence in my pewter. If you dont see it, i cant help you, its there. BTW you are the only one that has referred to my sterling lesser as ugly. I feel its awesome and other breeders have seen it and said it was extremely nice. As well as all the compliments on this board.

taylormademorphs Jun 24, 2010 08:59 PM

Congrats, those are very cool. You made my choice much easier on what male is breeding my Lesser female next year.

jsschrei Jun 25, 2010 01:57 AM

Very cool stuff! Thanks for sharing.
