    Bright yellow 600g Pastel Female

    Title says it all! You don't see many pastels that hold their color. Actually, many of the pastels I see on the market are already mostly brown straight out of the egg....
    It saddens me when people think that a pastel should be orange or brown.

    I couldn't have said it better myself, unfortunately that's why I don't have a pastel in the collection yet... She is beautiful.

    Thank you! I once had someone tell me how my Spotnose remind me of their pastel..... It makes me question what the future of this hobby is going to look like. So many people are going for cheap vs quality.

    I paid a good 4 times market value for this girl and she was worth every penny.

    If I could thank this more, I would. This will give good quality breeders an edge though when it comes to producing quality animals. Sure, the hobby is going to get larger and more diluted, but that will in turn increase the customer base for quality animals when they get addicted. Keep on the straight and narrow path of never compromising to save a buck and it will pay off!

    Exactly! There are maybe one or two animals in my collection that don't meet my "expectations" but still have their value for my breeding program and I have grown attached

    I have paid for the quality of a lot of animals in my collection. People always ask if I tried to talk them down, but honestly, if I think an animal is worth it I pay every cent they are asking for it.

    Wow you should've warned me to get my sunglasses! Best looking pastel I've seen in awhile. Where did you get her?

    You definitely got what you paid for. We strive very hard for quality not only for our customers but for the future of the hobby. We love our animals and love the hobby, we want to see it continued.

    That is definitely a nice pastel and like you state, you pay for quality. The babies should be gorgeous.
