Thoughts on adding Pastel to everything...

I agree, it depends on the combo. Dark morphs do muddy it up sometimes. But look at butter pastel or bumble bee combos or even Ultramel pastel. Quite an improvement.

We have to give pastel some credit tho. It was a strong foot hold to where we are today with ball pythons. Think of how cool the first bumblebee was. I do agree tho that there are wayyy to many below average pastels our there.

I sort of accidently stumbled into the chocolate pastel combo as my plans where more along the dark chocolate combos. However, this chocolate pastel I hatched this year has grown on me. I need to get an updated pic as he is better now:

But even better are the chocolate pastel yb and chocolate pastel spider yb so I'd say some dark combos with pastel can be nice but no, I wouldn’t say it automatically improves everything.
