    As I understand it, it is just a color variation in the Pastels.

    Genetic... or just random/selective breeding?

    Thanks for the reply's .

    So would it work like any other pastel , if i bred it to a normal i should get 50% stonewashed pastels and 50% normals?

    What about Casey Lazik's stonewashed super pastel? I don't know if there's some sort of hidden gene in play or what, but it definitely doesn't look like your typical super pastel. Images 11 and 12 at http://reptilia.com/index.php?option...=42&Itemid=30#

    no. i was just reading on another site and a guy said he has a stonewashed pastel he had since 2003 and he has not produced any stonewashed babies yet. all pastels produced are normal pastels.
    he said the original stonewashed pastel was a grazaini line pastel.
    i have never seen one in person but they look good in pics.
    so if you like it buy it. and good luck with producing more.
