    Re: Beginings of a new morph.

    Pastels like all morphs do come in a rage of patterns and class ratings. We have a few pastel and pastel mixes in our collection. This guy stands out not due to the blush or the similarities or lack there of with the pastel allele. He was odd from the start and that oddness is what drove us to tinker.

    He is definitely genetic, co- dom or dominant will take a while to prove out, But as of 8am this morning our 2013 season just got a wrench thrown into it lol..will be paring him up with some different morph's to see what we produce.

    Looks like a Pastel black back....and the black back looks genetic since it was passed on to the offspring. And I know the in thing is to call 99.9% of all Pastels low quality, but I'd breed that guy in a heartbeat. That's a smoking snake. Congrats!

    I like to call a spade a spade.. Or in this case a pastel a pastel... Male looks like a browned pastel with nice blushing, and the offspring look pastel in every way. Congrats on the good odds.

    After seeing a close up of his eyes, I say what you have is not a new morph, but another take on one of the oldest ones. He looks like a Pastel to me...maybe a new, darker, less yellow line of Pastel, but Pastel just the same.

    Good luck with you efforts.

    Re: Beginings of a new morph.

    Maybe the Blackback part of it is the 'new stuff', proving out a new genetic line of blackback is never a bad thing, but it was obviously a pastel to begin with, so thats nothing new unless it was a CH or WC pastel, and even then that's not an entirely 'new morph', just another line of an already established morph.Its all still fun to dink with tho.

    My guess is that the dad is already the 'super' form of that particular black back, cause all the babies are blackbacks to some degree even the normal, but they don't have his extreme blushing. Or you could have just killed the odds completely and lucked out on all blackback babies.

    Black backs are not new either, it's a good on the OP's part to prove that the black back he is working with is genetic however neither black backs or pastels are new morphs which is the title of the thread.
