    Crystal ball?
    I have heard about this a couple of times (and in referance to a mojave if I remember correctly) but I don't know what it is? What do you breed to make a crystal ball? I've seen pictures, but of course, if you have one to post, I wouldn't mind seeing it again! ^_^

    Also, a pewter is a pastel and a cinnamon, right? (or did I completely make that up? :P)

    Here's a picture of one:

    So far as I understand it...the Crystal Ball is a "designer" morph, meaning it is a combination of at least two different naturally occurring morphs...but the person who created it is not saying which morphs went into it.

    And you are correct about the pewter. :)

    The crystal is the product of a mojave and a "secret" female. He is yet to show pics of what the female looks like.

    :w00t: At least this time I hadn't just completely forgotten something ^_^ He just hasn't said yet.

    Is cinnamon resessive or co-dom?

    That's what I was thinking....If I didn't know that a lesser and a mojo made a BEL, I would guess that's what the crystal ball is. Very pretty either way. ^_^

    So *in theory* a pewter is only one breeding away...That's not too bad... Is anyone working with pewters? Like, is there a super pastel cinnamon?

    A super pastel cinny is a silver streak.

    Sorry, but no lesser in the crystal.

    Tom Bakers Crystal is a combination morph using a Mojave and a 'special' female. It doesn't have any Lesser in it. HOWEVER, BHB has also created a morph that looks like the crystal by using a lesser, but to me it looks lighter in shade with less color to it. Personally I think the 'special' gene is a seperate mutation that will modify the looks of the Lesser/mojave/phantom complex of mutations, much like Ralphs 'lesser siblings' seem to do. I would love to see what the 'special' mutation does with a phantom.

    Wow I had some interesting conclusions of my own when it came to the feamle that made the crystal ball. My guess can be the mojave that the mojave was mixed with a ghost then into an axanthic. Wow I really wish I can be the second to prove that out

    Looks like maybe a mojave and a platty daddy to me?
