    Firefly or Super pastel?

    I purchased her as a firefly. But looking at how similar they and super pastels can be could she actually be a super pastel?

    Re: Firefly or Super pastel?

    Looks like a super pastel to me but she doesn't really have the blushing for a super. It could just be a busy firefly just my opinion :p

    Looks just like my super pastel. But also looks like a firefly.

    I must say this is a difficult morph I.D.
    But my vote is for super pastel.

    The fire gene being a "Clean-up" gene, the pattern is too busy for me to say firefly.

    I am really on the fence too, but I just want to point out that not all fireflies are reduced. My boy is very busy and is without a doubt a firefly.

    Re: Firefly or Super pastel?

    I have both and to me, your snake looks like a super pastel. The obvious difference in mine are the colors. Plus the black on yours is pretty dark. My SP is more orange than my Firefly (we think she's a superfly though). Here's pics for comparison. You can always ask what the pairing was to produce her?
    Here's our Firefly



    And our Super Pastel

    My Balls- Boys- Super Chocolate, Butter Enchi Ghost, Lemonblast, Mojave Sable ph hypo, Genetic Stripe, 2 66% Het Pieds, Bumblebee, Clown, Normal
    Girls- 18 Normals (Het Hypo, Albino, Genetic Stripe, Pied, Caramel), 2 Lemonblasts, Sable ph hypo, Sable ph VPI, Pastave, Mystic, Enchi, Vanilla, 2 Cinnys, Bumblebee, 2 YB, 2 Spiders (1 het hypo), Lesser het hypo, 2 Pastels, Mojave ph hypo, Super Pastel, Superfly, Pinstripe, Spotnose ph VPI, and Albino.

    My Boas- 1. Hypo het albino (Pierre'), .3 Anery het Albino (Avery, Ariel, Punky Bruster), 1.1 DH Snow (Jazmine, Sebastian), .1 het Albino (Cookie) 1.1 Sunglows

    My Carpets- 1.2 JCP, .1 Tiger
