Exactly! Now my pastel, while I love him to death is not one of those crazy bright, high blushing, high yellow pastels.



But I hope to produce even nicer examples through breeding him with my normal female that has the most blushing.



She has started to glow in that picture but all that blushing is what she has normally.

As far as inbreeding, I'm fine with it and will do it to a point. Inbreeding does not really cause all those problems UNLESS you line breed, which is inbreeding over and over down the generations. Ralph Davis did this with some albinos he had, I think, and he hatched out some real train wrecks (missing eyes, deformed jaws, etc). But I have no problem breeding mother to son or father to daughter. If I get any really nice male high blush pastels from this breeding, I might hold one back to breed back to his mother. But we shall see.

I'm really a fan of deep rich brown cinnamons. The kind that almost have a red tint to them like real cinnamon does. Tim Bailey's female cinnies that he has on his site are by far my favorite examples of the morph and one day.....one day....I will have one.
