Pastel?

Pastel?

Postby Kev » Sun Mar 03, 2013 7:57 am

I came across this guy at the show, however someone had already purchased him.
The guy at the stand could not tell me what the parents were as it was not his snake, but it was being sold as a pastel.
Is it just me or is there more to this snake then just pastel?

Hi Guys , my girlfriend and I were the ones one lucky enough to buy him , I showed him to a number of friends (breeders) at the show and they all said super because of his head , I asked the guy who was there and he got ahold of the breeder who said its was bred from a pastel and a normal

We have looked at both super pastels , banded pastels and fireflys on the net and if we had to choose one he looks like a firefly but that's not certain

Ye he didn’t look like any pastel or super pastel I've ever seen.
You must keep us posted on his breeding when he gets there.

@scally glad you happy with your purchase : ) This pastel boy came out of a Lemon Pastel male x Normal female. I have kept back 3 others similar to this, they are just more yellow, very pretty snakes!

Rolf any chance you want to sell me one of the males you kept back? I really need one that looks like this for another project.
It is easier to ask for forgiveness than permission.
