[mpkeelee]

i've seen a few of these for sale and i was wondering what produces them. obviously a pastel, but what else?

Puzzle is another base morph.

Exotics by Nature is the only person offering them I believe. I talked to Sean about them at a show last month. Check out his site for more info.

I told Sean about this thread yesterday, so hopefully he will chime in. I did tell him I thought he needed to design a page for his website about the gene, so people could go read it for themselves. So, it will probably appear on his site soon.

With that said, I can tell you that at this time, we believe it to be recessively inherited. At the present, the gene has not been seperated from Pastel yet. There have only been 2 clutched produced from the parents, and with the likelyhood of it being recessive, the Puzzle gene by itself has not been seen. It has been displayed with a Pastel and also a Super Pastel. The parents are a pair of Pastels that were produced by Sean's original Super Pastel. So, it is taking some time for Sean to identify all of the offspring from the original Super in an attempt to find more gene carrying animals, and plug them back in to the project.

Hope that helps,
