Welcome!
I really like the reduced pattern normals! Great job on rescuing him/her.
Those don't really look like anything to worry about. Flaky shed pieces left over after a shed will come off on the next shed. Just make sure it's humid enough for the next shed.
If you have a pastel male and normal female, it would be a great place to start breeding. I'm just in my first season of breeding and I'm learning a lot.
Best thing to do is read, research, read, and research on the proper setups and care of BPs. Make sure you can take care of them well. Then move on to worrying about breeding and taking care of babies. Though I think I'm ready, I'm still nervous...we'll see how it goes.
For reduced pattern, for my preference, I'd look at putting spider or mojave with it...but I'm just a lowly newbie, too.
