    I like him. Everyone has there own opinion on pastels. I have heard that ones displaying a lot of orange as juvies tend to brown out as the grow. You may want to see the parents to get a good idea of what it may develop in to. also if you are wanting to produce pastels or pastel combos it is worth the extra to buy a super pastel instead. I've seen them as low as $250 for a male recently. Having a super insures that all of the offspring are pastel at a minimum. Not producing any normals will up your profits and increase your odds of hitting what ever multi gene combo you are trying to achieve.

    I REALLY like that pastel! Hard to tell if it'll brown out but the blushing and pattern... Very pretty! If I hatched one like that, I'd keep it!

    But hofr has a point, if you have the money for a super it will help you achieve what you hope to produce faster

    It actually has some crazy cool blushing. Looks like a good pewter project pastel.

    Definitely worth breeding. I don't think it will brown out very much at all based on that picture.
