Brightest (yellow) Pastel??
I'm going to be looking for a couple female pastels. I've seen lemons and mixes and browned out ones. I'm sure everyone have their favorites. But if I'm looking for a bright yellow and black black with no fading. And one that keeps the yellow into adulthood. Where would I look? I know I could go for a super of a firefly or something just to help keep color. But for breeding purpose I'm just looking for some pastels. Any help on where to look or who to talk to? I wouldn't mind seeing pictures either ;)

I can't really say where to look, you just have to shop around and see what pops up. As for getting one that keeps its colours, you just have to know what to look for, because they all get a bit duller with age. When you're looking at baby pastels, you want to look for one that is literally almost neon; the brighter it is as a baby, the better the colour will keep into adulthood.

Nerd's lemon pastels retain their color however expect to drop a pretty penny, but you get what you pay for.

My avatar contains my female pastel (on the left) the picture does not do her any justice. In good light, or outside she is a SCREAMING yellow...not a spot of brown, just yellow and black. Although, she does have 3 "little" spots where there is fading/blushing.
I know pastel's get darker as they age, but I hope my girl doesn't lose too much of her hot yellow :please:
Re: Brightest (yellow) Pastel??
You're going to have to be willing to be patient, and be willing to pay more for the bright yellow girls. Patient, because most breeders are going to hold onto more of those girls for themselves and be willing to pay more, because they are so few and far between. And be willing to jump immediately when you find one.
I wasn't even shopping for one when I stumbled across this girl, who was 2 x and some change more than the price of other female pastels. But worth every penny.

You just have to look around. IMO you can find exceptional pastels from every line. This is a Bell line female I produced (I no longer own her) @ 700g.
