    Is it worth it?

    I recently was offered a female Super Pastel pushing 1000g for $300. She has never been breed but should be ready for next years season. The questions is, is she worth it? Shes really pretty and it would be good to have another female ready for next year but, pastels, are they worth it? It seems like they're at the low end of the morph price range. How much would you be willing to pay for a super pastel?
    Donno yet. Thoughts?

    Post a pic and ill tell you. My instinct would be to say "yes" but it depends on her quality really.

    I would say yes but also quality is important. $300 for a near breeding size super pastel female sounds like a great deal. Bred to anything and you will never get any normal babies. But lets see a pic
    Females: 0.1 fire; 0.1 sugar; 0.1 GHI; 0.1 pinstripe het desert ghost; 0.1 mojave spider; 0.2 mojave; 0.1 black pewter blast; 0.1 leopard pied; 0.1 champagne; 0.1 pied; 0.1 super pastel lesser; 0.1 pewter; 0.1 spider het pied, 0.1 bumblebee; 0.1 lesser; 0.1 spider; 0.1 normal; 0.3 het pied
    Males: 1.0 het desert ghost; 1.0 pastel pied; 1.0 leopard; 1.0 black pastel; 1.0 enchi; 1.0 mojave; 1.0 cinnamon; 1.0 pied; 1.0 vanilla

    Other species: 1.0.3 pacman frogs (sunkissed, super apricot, super blue, super lime green); 0.2 crested gecko; 1.0 hypo hog island boa; 0.1 normal boa; 1.0 rottweiler; 1.0 chihuahua

    $300 for a girl that size is really cheap. Male hatchlings were that price a year or so ago.
    If she were male, I would pass. But as a female, that's a great breeding investment. And plus she won't throw normal hatchlings.

    Make sure she doesn't have special needs (ASFs only, frequently going off feed, RIs) but if everything seems good, go for it! I've seen breeder wild-type females go for $300. I think my male super pastel was $250 as a hatchling, so the price seems fair- and she's pretty bright in that picture.

    I'd pay $300 for her. Shes not the nicest ive ever seen, but id give her a decent rating. Certainly worth breeding.

    That head looks blushed to me. Maybe thats shed skin tho? Idk, maybe i need new glasses lol. Even if shes only a pastel, shes worth $300. As long as its a female.
