Absolutely no idea as I'm far from a royal morph expert, just wanted to say that those are some beautiful individuals you have there!

very nice... i'm not sure either.
There was someone else who managed to produce an odd pastel from a clutch (looked like a super pastel)... i'd keep mum and dad and try again and see if one of the parents is hiding something  |

Looks like a super pastel, but the female - in theory, can't be carrying the pastel gene.It's possible that the female is a pastel but not displaying the trait. Only time will tell. If it is a male, mate it back to the mother in a year or so and see what hatches. That is what 'dinking' is all about!

I'm not up on royal morphs but those are some fine looking critters and I'm with Eggman on this one--- keep them all back and see what happens next time round.
Well done!!

this is my theory too!
I will definitely hold back that "super" male to breed it back with his mother.
in the pic you can see the mother on the clutch
