Pastel jungle?

This little guy came out of the egg yesterday, and I think I hit the big one with him but I'm not 100%. I'm still pretty new at breeding, but I think he is an OD leopard pastel.
The paring was OD x Leopard Pastel

What are your thoughts?

Do you have any pictures of him stretched out? So far I don't really see the leopard but I might be missing it since he's balled up.

also try to post some pictures of him after he sheds, the color will be more accurate

Not seeing Leopard. Need a better pic to see if there's OD in there. Pastel and OD together can be tough to pick out when combined together.

Maybe this helps.

I'm leaning towards OD Pastel from that pic. OD tail patterns are pretty unique, and it looks like it's there on this guy. And, he's obviously Pastel. Congrats! :gj:

No leopard. The dark areas would be a lot darker and crisper. Sometimes pastels just have funky patterns, I believe that's why the morph was originally called the "pastel jungle" instead of just "pastel".

I agree about the tail pattern and him likely having OD in him though. He's a beautiful little guy!

Thanks for the information! What about this other little guy?

Just pastel?

Here is a picture of the whole clutch, in case you were curious.

The second one is definitely a pastel leopard, can't tell on the OD though. He is really clean and bright for just a pastel leopard. Also somewhat reduced pattern and OD tends to do that, but leopards are so variable that it's a gamble to judge on just that.
