    Re: Morphs that deteriorate

    For those that own or have seen them, how well do the older pastel and super pastel axanthics hold their color? Or the bumblebee axanthics?

    It seems to me that the animals that are homozygous pastel tend to keep their silver coloring better and don't brown out versus those that have only one copy of the pastel gene ... The silver bullet versus super pewter, for example:

    Almost all morphs look best as hatchlings and then get a little less impressive as they age IMO. There are a few that don't change too much like Black pastels and sables. The only exceptions that I can think that actually look better as adults are Caramels, Ghosts, lessers and of course Lavender albino's. I may be missing a few but those are what popped into my mind.
