    Are you sure your reduced girl isn't a dark pastel?

    Could be that the color pigment hasn't fully developed yet.... which gives super light appearances in babies that have yet to fully develop their color before emerging from the egg...

    I was thinking the same thing. A lot of cutters will find their babies color up a bit more in the first week after they come out.

    We'll see what happens. Mom is a relatively normal-hued reduced girl; nothing Pastelish at all
