I plan to breed my pastel whenever he's ready, and eventually my goal is to make super pastels with him... he has really nice blushing for a regular pastel, so I imagine his supers will be fabulous. Since I love his coloring/blushing so much, I was thinking of breeding him back to a female offspring (I plan to mate him with my normal this winter). If I find a nice looking pastel girl in the clutch, should I hold her back for him? I've heard that inter-breeding isn't a good idea... I can understand the reasoning if it's a morph with genetic issues, like the spider or caramel. But is there any reason not to do this with a pastel? Should I buy him a nice looking un-related girl instead? TIA for any input, and here's my boy:
