Take a male pastel or super pastel and breed it to a female piebald.
If you produce a male pastel het piebald, raise him up and breed him back to the female piebald. You'll have a 1/4 chance of producing a Pastel Piebald.
That's the quick way to cross a co-dominant mutation with a simple recessive mutation.
Using the same breeding colony to create a Super Pastel Piebald, breed the Pastel Piebald, regardless of sex, to a pastel het piebald produced from the first clutch and you'll have a 1/8 chance of producing a Super Pastel Piebald.

So here is a Codom Recessive paring that will give you a chance at all possible combinations of the 2 genes.
Want a Spider Piebald? Same principle. Just make sure the co-dom is the male and the recessive is the female.
Or a Lesser Piebald...
Or Spider Albino
Or Pastel Clown
Is there any particular reason that you say to make sure the co-dom is the male? I am curious because I tried to find that out a while ago and did not find any mention, one way or the other. Better odds or something?

Reason: Just realized post above described dihybrid crossing.
0.1 '05 Het. Hypo - Lelu
1.0 '06 Hypo - Chester ; 0.1 '11 hypo holdback
0.1 '07 Woma - Cleopatra aka Cleo
1.0 '11 Pinstripe het hypo
0.1 '06 German Shepard Runt - Mika (me-kuh)

The reasoning behind having the co-dom male Is so that you reach your goal quicker.... A male matures alot quicker. So if you have a Female that is The Recessive gene carrier you can breed her son that is a co-dom and carrier of her recessive gene back to her possibly by the next season. If the Male was the Recessive then you would have to breed a Daughter back to him which would take you probably 3 years to get her to good breeding size.
