A good pastave?
Im getting a pastave next week but im not sure what to look for in a good pastave or mojave. There is two males to pick from. One has a stripe that runs head to tail broken in a few places with what looks to be a somewhat reduced pattern. The other one has no striping but a very scattered pattern and more "busy". Both are very nice with great blushing. I want to breed him with my mojave girl to make BEL's. What do you guys look for in a good pastave/mojave? If you could post pics of what you prefer thatd be a great help on deciding. Thanks.

If you could post pics, that would help tremendously.
As for what I like, I prefer my mojos to be dark. Good contrast, and eye catching pattern. I know thats vague, but its the only way I can explain it. Pick the one that makes you go "wow!". My mojo made me say wow, and even if he doesn't do the same for others, I'm very happy with him :)

This is the one Im leaning for because it looks more reduced. Also this one seems to have more blushing especially the head.

That's a tough choice...I like the holes in the dorsal of number one, but I also like number two...hmm, of those two I would probably go for number one. I don't think either one is a bad choice though. This one comes down to your preference!

I vote #2, I like the dorsal striping with the dark outlines and contrast

Re: A good pastave?
Im leaning for #2 still but i really like #1 also. Any other opinions??? Need to make the decision by monday!
-
Dorsal striping is a bigy for me i just love when mojaves have a full dorsal stripe down there spine. I vote #2 also, heres a picture of my pastave

I'm not sure which I would pick... I think #2 looks slightly lighter, and I like the more unbroken dorsal stripe, but #1 looks like it might have more blushing on the back. I'd lean toward #2.
This is a newer picture of my pastave:

Re: A good pastave?
I like #2 mostly because of the less busy pattern. When I look at a pastave, I look for a good pattern/blushing like I would on a mojave and then the brighter yellowing of the pastel gene. Granted, it seems to be personal preference but I lean towards the cleaner, reduced patterns on mojaves/pastaves with high blushing.
