    Newbie can't tell between Pastel and a pretty Normal... help?

    My boyfriend and I are new to pythons, but we adore them so far. We have three between us- he has two (one male, one unsexed), and I have one female. The male and female are siblings and are normal. His unsexed was from a pet store and has beautiful coloring, but of course we do not know it's lineage.
    I am convinced it is a pastel from the reading I've been doing, but he is convinced it is just a pretty normal. However, the snake is so bright in comparison to our two normals that I have trouble believing it is not a pastel (and my girl is even bright compared to the normals at my work!)l. It's eyes are not bright green, but are not black, if that helps. I'll post some photos of the snake in question and my normal girl. Any help would be appreciated! Going to post photos both with and without flash from the same camera, as I know how it can distort the coloring. Apologies for my boy's cute face being in the pics. It's the best photo I have of his BP.
