What Pastel Line?
Greetins all,
I really hate opening these these types of posts up. so lets keep it decent, and no fighting.
anyway, looking about at pastels and realizing there are many different lines of them, making it difficult to decide what one would be more preferred in the long run. so what Pastel line is your favorite?.

I work with lemons, but my brightest is a female of unknown lineage.

Regardless of line I like to look at the parents (if it's possible). Bright n' clean, I'm really fond of blushing myself so it's also something I look for

i really dig the Zebra Pastels, but they wont be available for at least another couple of years from my conversation with the breeder. i had a Gratzi Pastel a while back, (did not survive :( ), like those for the aberrant pattern that one had. but i guess in our stance it is going to be more of an enhancer morph for us than anything, but i we still want a solid line to go with as well in the single genes.

Citrus.. I've seen some Citrus combos in person and they blown doors on the normal combos.

WOW seems to be a unanimous call on this topic.

I said Citrus, but I have also seen a few really nice Blonde Pastels as well.

Rat160 yours looks like a blonde pastel to me. And as far what line it would depend on the direction you are going. NERD has the crazy fader thing tied to their line, citrus line looks awesome by it self and combos nice, and blonde is a great addition as well. Then again you could cross a few different lines and after some serious time and effort have your own line. It might not ever be famous but would be exactly what you want in a pastel and be extremely proud of.

If I see a nice pastel I want to be able to jump on it without hesitating because it's a different line than what I have currently. For this reason I'm steering clear of the named lines and just looking out for exceptional examples to start my own projects. You can find good and bad examples in any of the lines(known or unknown, named or not), don't get too hung up on the title or you could miss out on some great opportunities.

:gj: Quality In = Quality Out
At the risk of raising a contentious ghost from the dead, does anyone remember what line Adam Wysocki was working with? He had some killer Pastels that held good color.

Agreed, find the nicest pastel you can find regardless of line....lines can be mixed up, forgotten, and not pure, but you can't take the nice away from any exceptional animal.

I was not really going the this line or that, just more looking for some better direction from others experiences. obviously if something stands out regardless of name or lines it is coming home. thus far we have 6 from our list to get, Pastel, Cinnamon, and Pieds are next up for us. (can't get my clowns till she gets her Pieds, LOL). last pastel i had a few years back did not do well for us and ended up passing on us, even though it was from a "Name" out there. so just feeling a bit gun shy i guess.
