Which one would you keep?

    Which one would you keep?
    My pastel clutch (5 pastels, 2 normals) is all shed and half fed now, so I popped the two I was thinking about keeping - and if my popping is correct, it appears they are both girls. Yay!

    So if you were to pick one of these, since I could really use ONE (not two) pastel girl in my collection, which would you choose? I love the insane blushing & contrast on #1, but #2 has a slightly more "clean" and reduced pattern. Oh, and #1 has an extremely feisty temperament - tagged me twice the other day, and then got so mad she started tagging her hide. It was kind of adorable. :D

    Here's #1:

    Now #2:

    And side-by-side (#1 on left, #2 on right)

    Not like you're going to get rich off a 0.1 Pastel hatchling, so I would hold both for 6 months and see who eats better and holds their color.

    Sounds like wise words to me.

    Another advantage to holding both for a few months is you will get to know eating habits. One may end up being a garbage disposal while the other is hit or miss. At six months one could be twice the size of the other depending on eating habits.

    LOL... I wasn't planning to get rich off these babies, just bred them for my own enjoyment. ;)

    But the problem is that I'm actually trying to REDUCE my collection, so I shouldn't even keep one let alone two. I'll consider what you & the others have said, though, and see if I can hold on to them for a little while. #1 took her first meal offering, btw, and I don't remember (without checking iHerp) if the other one did - I got 4/7 to eat on the first try.

    I'd keep the one with the spot behind the head if everything else is equal

    I vote you keep #1 for yourself, and mail me #2 :D Lol but I would def keep #2. Or do as others suggested and keep them for a bit and see how they grow.
