    My first Dinker!! ....Well...sort of...
    Picked this gal up at a local pet shop in town. They do randomly carry one or two Pastels, and I've gotten a Spider from them before, but it's very rare for them to have morphs. This girl was grouped up with 3 other 'normals' for sale. At this time they did not have any other morph for sale.

    When I first saw her I was %50 sure she was something other than normal. Now that I have her home and am able to look at her more closely I am %90 sure she's a Pastel.

    BUT I'm calling it a dinker because the label was a normal =P, so I'll have to dinker around and breed to be %100 sure :D

    Here are the pics! Thoughts?

    Well i looks like a normal, but if it's a pastel, it's the lowest quality pastel i've ever seen. For being that young, she should not be that browned out. Good pickup though, for the right price i hope!!??

    I thought "PASTEL!" the moment I saw the first picture. Nice little treasure you found! :gj:

    Let's see those eyes :) (Pastels have green eyes)

    Looks pastel to me from the way her coloring and belly is.

    I agree that if she turns out to be pastel, it wouldn't be the best, and I almost typed that in this post =). I currently own a couple sub-adults that are super bright and she's nothing in comparison, but compared to 2 of my normals, the difference in her is crazy! And the price was welllll worth it. I would not have purchased if they did not have a sale!

    Looks like a pastel to me, just very low quality.

    Let's see the head! Looks like a lower quality pastel at first glance to me too though.

    Pastel or not, raise her up and see what she produces! She is a hottie.
