That is a normal looking pastel. Not too bad. It wont brown out as bad as some. But they all brown out anyways. You can def get them for less from a breeder or an expo. Any animal you get from a pet store is going to cost you more. Actually anything you buy in a pet store is going to cost you more. The store has to make a profit to cover costs. They have bills to pay. Product to buy and employees to pay.
