    Black Pastel and Cinnamon.

    Are these interchangeable like lessers and butters?

    I have a pastel, cinnamon and mojave females. In the next year I am looking to get a male to breed to them. I want to get a pewter because he would work very well with each female. I see pewters that are black pastel x pastel and cinnamon x pastel. Would it make any difference?

    I wouldn't say that they are "interchangeable", but more that they are compatible and yield very similar results, but they also have two very distintive looks, whereas butters and lessers look the same (at least to me).

    Re: Black Pastel and Cinnamon.

    As everyone has already stated, cinnamons and black pastels are compatible, but they have very different looks. I am a cinnamon fan myself, so the only pictures I can post are of cinnamons and cinnamon pewters (usually just called pewters). I believe black pastel pewters are usually called black pewters. Anyhow, here are some pictures of a cinnamon pewter, I am sure someone will come behind me and post examples of a black pewter for comparison. It is a matter of personal preference.

    Hope this helps!

    Re: Black Pastel and Cinnamon.

    If you pick a good line, both will have good results. I personally like black pastels better though

    Does that mean a cinnamon x black pastel pairing could make a super form, the brown/gray basically solid color, or would you end up with a pewter looking snake?

    My ultimate goal in this plan is the small chance at sterlings and silver bullets.
