    I would like opintions on this Pastel

    I was thinking of getting this 300 + gram pastel female, but I would like opinions on it. rate 1-10, 1=horrible 10=amazing. Is it just an average pastel? Is there a way to know if it will brown out a little or allot? I have an adult male pastel that is browned out and don't want another browned out pastel. I just recently acquired my first ball python a few months ago, and I'm already wanting to add more but I don't know what a good pastel should look like.

    She also has a bit of a smaller head, will this affect her offspring if I ever decide to breed her?

    To me she looks great, but I know some pastels brown out more than others. Please share your opinion if you have experience/knowledge regarding this.

    Welcome to the site:

    That pastel looks great. I would buy her if I was in the market for another pastel female.

    Orange is what turns to brown, so it looks like that pastel will keep most of her color.

    This is my pastel female you can see that she isn't browning out much at all

    She's quite nice, I'd give her an 8 out of 10, definitely worth picking up if you're in the market for a pastel female!

    Very good looking snake! Is it bad that after I checked out the snake, all I could think was how badly the guy chews his fingernails and how I hoped he cleaned his hands beforehand? LOL

    Yep, I concur, definitely an 8. It's exceptionally rare to see animals better than that one.
