So is the dam a Desert citrus pastel, or was it a mistake?

I think he wants you to call him to find out.

I understood that, but I'd rather he answer that question here, since we've had months of speculation and even other respected breeders like Justin Kobylka who doesn't believe the babies are desert and Sean Bradley who agreed the dam didn't look desert.

The perceived "secrecy" and unwillingness to respond in public is concerning. I'd rather it come straight from "the horse's mouth" publicly. It is after all how one handles such situations that is important as he said. I believe it's best to be answered here whether he still stands behind the dam being a desert or not.

Amir and I have spoken, and he will honor our agreement regarding the Citrus Pastel Desert female as he has said since day one without wavering if indeed she does not prove out. Not even a normal was present in the clutch this season so she will be bred to a normal male to prove her out without a doubt. The clutch is beautiful and I'm happy with the results thus far. Again, I thank you all for your input regarding this matter.

Can i ask why you've been calling it a citrus pastel desert all along if from day one amir let it be known that she may not prove out? If the jury has been out all this time why were you speaking so definitively about her and labeling the babies as deserts? Imo you don't even have to breed her to a normal to prove her out. Shes just a citrus pastel. I know that and called it from the beginning, most of the people on the forum probably know that, amir probably knows that, and even now you probably know that. But we'll just keep playing along...

I wonder how many idiots read your other thread and this one and decided to breed their female deserts, inviting death upon them. Have you thought about that at all?

Still haven't seen an admission of it not being a desert.

I hit me on the way home! lol Sorry Stan..... I have a female from his line.

What was the agreement with Amir? Did you already know that it was possibly not a desert when you purchased it?

I don't see the Jungle Desert scenario working in your favor. The Jungle is a separate trait/gene that has been popping up through the years not a new line of desert. At least this is my understanding.\ regarding the "jungle".

You are correct, It originated from a desert pairing to a female at Pro Exotics. While it's not very common they are out there and have a very distinct look.
