Fader question

ReptileNexus Jul 20, 2012 09:24 PM

Can a pastel carry the fader gene and not express it?
The reason I ask...I have a female that is a NERD line lemon pastel...and she is kinda boring for a lemon to be honest.

But she throws AWESOME babies. She gave me this pewter last year.

And this firefly this season.

Her offspring are so much nicer than her...and I am wondering if something is going on there...or if I am just lucky.

If it was fader I would think it would look more like the one in the pic which at this point is just a nice pewter, fader isn't confirmed nor will I be able to for a few years but hoping the guy with her dad proves it out for me.
