If you breed super to super, you get all supers.

The only way to get a cinnamon is from another animal carrying the cinnamon mutation. Cinnamon x cinnamon produces 1/4 super cinnys. Cinnamon to pastel produces 1/4 pewter.

>if you breed pastel to pastel you will get a super.... right?

Theoretically, a quarter of the babies would be homozygous (super) pastels, half the of babies would be pastels (heterozygous pastels), and a quarter of the babies would be normal. Actual results would vary somewhat from the expected.

>then what happens when you breed super to super?

All the babies would be supers. I don't know whether this has actually been done yet, but that has been the result with other codominant mutant genes in a variety of species.

No worries- the name pastel got tagged to allot of the co-doms out there... When it comes to Pastel Jungles, Blondes & Lemons- you can mix and match to get a super.

With the Cinnys & black pastels, the same is also true (between these two types of "pastel". But take a Cinny of black to the above morphs you get Pewters, not supers. So far, so good right?

Then there's taking a Pewter back to a Black pastel (Ian G did this) that produced- Super form of the Black, some regular pastels and a cool little number that has been named the Silver Bullet. Hope this helps...
