    Pastel ph ghost

    I haven't posted any pictures of him in a while, but here is my male pastel 50% het ghost. I'm really hoping he will prove out, but even if he doesn't he's a stunning pastel. The blushing on his head just amazes me. He's only about 200-250g right now. He was a problem feeder when I first got him, now he takes f/t rats pretty reliably so he's starting to grow.

    I did use flash, but these pictures actually represent him very well. He just shed to.

    I've been doing some reading on het ghosts because I just got one andsome people report that they shed clear. Keep an eye on his sheds to see if you can see black pattern. If you can't then there's a good chance of him being het ghost. Nice snake regardless!

    That is one very nice looking pastel. He is holding his colors very well.

    Thank you.

    I haven't heard that some het ghosts shed clear, I thought that was only ghosts. He doesn't shed clear and neither do my het ghost and possible het ghosts. I have heard that blushed heads and a little nicer than normal color are good signs of het ghosts, but there really is no way to be sure.

    Thank you.

    I'm very happy with how he's growing. If he proves out that would be even better.

    Wow! what a pastel! I have a pastel 100% het ghost male. He's a 2008, and still holds the yellow very well. Maybe the het ghost is why he's not browning out. Maybe he's just a good pastel... don't really know, but I suspect the het ghost is affecting it a little bit.
    Lots of BPs, and still not enough!
