So today I went to visit my friends Kelly and Art of Kelly's Balls and I ended up bringing home TWO beautiful new babies! Now, the thing about these babies is... The parents were a Het Clown female and a Het Clown/Het Ghost male. NEITHER parent is a pastel and mom has never been bred TO a pastel. However....
the yellow on the sides is actually a bit more orange-ish in person and you can see a little bit of the blushing, as well as the flames on it's side. Just a stunning little baby!
The best I can come up with is one of the parents carrying a recessive pastel gene. they both are visual normals. This is PERPLEXING!!
