    Lightbulb Strange looking Pastel Calico

    Hello :-),

    I have an odd Pastel Calico female. It hatched 1 Year ago and looks like a Super Pastel Calico, but it's impossible. It is so bright.
    What du you think ?

    Freshly hatched:


    ALmost 1 year old:





    The FATHER is a Super Pastel Calico:


    The MOTHER is a Classic, with a blushing.


    Curious in what you say to the little girl :-)

    Wow, she is a show stopper. I've never seen a pastel calico or super pastel calico with pattern and color THAT blown out. Definitely some interesting stuff here-- I love how soft her pattern is.

    That's definitely very interesting, curious to see the outcome when you breed her.

    That is pretty wild looking. Are you repeating the pairing that produced her? Hopefully it's reproducible.

    Hopefully it's genetic, that's such smooth color and pattern.

    Unfortunately we can't repeat the pairing, we sold the mother.

    But we will breed her to her father or a son from her father.
    When she has enough weight. She hatched with 25 gr and wieghts at the moent 450 gr ....
    So we have to wait.....

    I hope she will inhert her airbrushs
