you can always breed a baby back to mom to see if there is something there.
I agree but it looks like a normal Mojo to me

Re: Mojave or more?
Hi all, just a bit of an update... \this year I will be putting sonny boy back to his mom to see what happens, but for now just wanted to show you how he and his sister are growing up.
Alright, someone correct me if I'm wrong, but you can indeed get normals when crossing a mojave with a mojave. Since mojaves are only displaying a single mojave gene while super mojaves (bel) would carry both mojave genes. So, breeding a mojave x mojave yields 25% bel, 50% mojaves, and 25% normals. If you were to breed a super mojave to a mojave, you would no longer get any normals. Super mojaves bred to each other would only yield super mojaves.

Ty you are absolutely right on this, since it's a co-dominant morph you can still get regulars out of it, so I guess I was just not lucky enough to get a BEL from this clutch.

Very cool looking normal, it looks like what used to be called a jungle pastel or just plain jungle ball. I've produced several of them myself in the past, they're not reliably reproducable and most people think it's caused my some problem during incubation. They're a lot of fun though and can be harder to come by then a lot of high end morphs.
