I noticed my enchi leopard pastel BP has some speckles. I think they’re very beautiful (id also like them to be on future BP purchases i make), so if anyone knows what trait this comes from please lmk!

There are actually a lot of Morphs that have speckling like that… yours is probably caused by the Pastel + Leo.
Here’s a Single Gene Pastel I produced last season with pretty intense speckling.
Bananas also produce black speckling, unfortunately I don’t have any examples because all of my Bananas have Pastel in them and don’t form really noticeable speckling.
Heres my Clown poss Carbon with a spot of speckling
And my Cinnamon YB Sugar with speckling all over her body

Sandblast and cinny or black pastel really brings out some fun speckles. I haven’t been able to try it with enchi yet.
Copper and cinny pastel so far looks to make some great speckles, but I am very new to copper and it’s not a common gene so I need to play with it a bit more.
And…
As @cmsreptiles mentioned, banana! The black speckles will come in as they grow so every couple of sheds you’ll just see more and more come in. And it adds a lot of contrast.
There’s also a well known breeder, Osborne that is working with a line of piebald that has speckles and spots showing up over time in the white pied marks. They’re pretty cute. Speckled or dalmatian Pieds are what I think they’re going by iirc.
