AWESOME looking Ghost !!! That one could fall in the catagory of "Pastel" with that nice light pink blotch coloration.

Nice image as well !!

I have some with pink, some without, some with black, some without. I just call them all "ghost." I've never been quite clear on what makes a ghost pastel... I wish it were as simple as a gene -- either its homozygous for pastel or it isn't! Same thing with "silver queen" ghosts. What makes a ghost a "silver queen?" Rich's site mentions Miami blood, but just like with pastels, there seems to be a huge variation. Either way, ghosts and all their variations are my favs. Kind of funny... when ghosts were first "discovered," I didn't like 'em.

Cheers!

I am always amazed at the colors on that thing!

Got eggs cookin' from that one this year?

Hi Clint!

Actually, I don't think I've ever posted photos of that particular ghost before. However, she is a sibling of the one everyone likes, and I do have eggs from both of them. I bred them to a different male this year, so who knows what the offspring will look like! I'm still searching for a nice male with black borders to pair up with both females.

Here's the one I think you're thinking of (very old photo):

I hope you can find one to match them up with, they're simply awesome!
I'm not a real Ghost fan either but I think you may have converted me!
