One thing to consider here with Disco, Vanilla, or any of the other alleles in the BlkEL group since you have expressed some concern about being able to ID Fire... I have heard many, many stories about people breeding out their Vanilla/Fire or Disco/Fire and not being able to tell which babies are which morph. It is enough of a detraction for me that I have chosen to only work with the Fire allele and save myself potential headaches

Oh yeah. I have pastel. 3 single gene, 1 pastel pin, 1 lemon blast, 1 killer bee, and 2 Pastel Pinstripe Phantoms. They are all girls though. LOL. I have not kept any male pastels. I am waiting to see which of the Pastel girls ages the best then I will use her to produce a Killer Bee male as a holdback. I am cautious with Pastel because I have seen too many age badly. I am lucky so far in that all but 2 of mine are above average so far. One of them all the yellow turned white. Another that I bought as a baby was exceptional but by the time she turned two her entire back browned out. I have one that is actually getting better with age which is really odd for a pastel. Her yellow seems to get better every year, but her genes don't seem to be "strong". So far the pastel in the babies she has produced is average.
I am committed now. Enchi/Phantom/Pin locked with the Fire last night. Fingers crossed. Thanks everyone for helping me make up my mind.

Maybe spelled with a y? Phyre Pinch
You know, I didn't event think about it. It might be a first. If anyone has ever heard of a Enchi/Fire/Phantom/Pin being produced please let me know.
This got me looking. There is a good chance that a Enchi/Pastel/Phantom/Pin will be laid in three weeks and a Super Enchi Phantom Pin will be laid this week.
Will need a name for those as well.

There's an idea. Dual sired clutch. The Fire Jigsaws are pretty hot.
