So you are the lucky lady that picked up that gem. She is an awesome looking specimen. Good luck whatever you breed her to! I have a soft spot for the hypo gene....sooo...hypo super mojave is my recommendation.

Good question Chad. Does anyone know the answer to this one or is it still speculation? Tom?

Maybe Tom can chime in here. I don't know what line of pastel he used to breed to his crystal to make this beauty.

If you keep her with you I would put any of your SUPERIOR :bow: Butter combos on her. Really can't go wrong that girl. :gj:
Thanks Bill.
I was thinking about putting our killer queen bee made from our butter to her but I need to really get an answer to the question about how butter/lessers interact with specials before I jump. I have a very nice pastel super mojave male that would do the job, or a YB champagne male or a mystic male, or a special male . . . . it's been alot of hard work but I am blessed to have so many fine choices.
Any other ideas you all?

I don't remember reading of a lesser to Baker line special combo yet. Apperently the BHB "crystal" was a combo of lesser and a seperate line assumed to be special because the combo looked like mojave with Baker special. However, Marshall Van Thorre has produced a very crystal looking baby from his own line of assumed special with mojave but with his line the combo with lesser is white. So if Marshall's line of special is genetically the same as Tom's original special it might be that lesser and special is white. But if Tom’s line of special is the same as BHB’s line then maybe the lesser special combo looks a lot like the mojave special combo.

Re: Pastel Special adult
Bakers line has not been done with a Lesser yet....just as BHB's has not been done with a Mojave yet.
Time will tell..

Alice -- I have been doing a few Special x Butter pairings this year -- no ovulations yet. :mad: I will post when I get something. :D I am not expecting a BEL from the combo. I would NOT be surprised if the combo had a smidge less color and pattern because of replacing the Mojave gene with the Butter. Mojaves seem to carry more contrast and pattern in other combos than do Butters. I do think there will be some pattern and color -- not white -- I hope. :rolleyes::confused:
