Cinnamon or Black Pastel?

[KKtheRipper]

Can anyone please give me their opinion of if this is a cinnamon or a black pastel? I'm getting different answers from different breeders and I just want to figure it out already. Thanks!

Almost positive it's a Black Pastel.

Thanks for the responses and confirmation! Now here's the twisted part.. It came from a regular pewter to a pastel. Why do you think a black pastel came from that clutch?

I would say you had a black pewter. you can have pewters from Cinnamon X pastel and black pastel X pastel. You would have to ask the breeder you got the pewter from to be sure. but does look like a black pastel

He does look like a black pastel but compared to ours he doesnt. He looks like our cinnamon more. Our cinnamon has the high whites where as our blk pastel has more oranges. Check the pics. First is cinn.

I understand what you both are saying. This may be a black pewter that I have. But, here's the strange part of it. The first three pics are of the pewter and a sterling that came from his clutch to a pastel.





And now here is this years pewter from him to the same pastel. Is the baby a black pewter? Now you guys probably understand my confusion.

There are many many different lines of both black pastel and cinnamon. New lines are brought in every year. Depending on how the fresh import looks determines which they call it. Some cinnies look like b.p and some b.p. look like cinnies. The old school way to determine was the color, and black pastels had the squiggly lines around the "alien eyes" in the saddles. Plus cinnys head stripes fade with age. Here is my boy, he is darker then the normal cinny and throws dark babies too. He is even darker in person. Just a different line from the usual cinnamon.
