    I need your help! First time breeding Ball Pythons

    Hi! First of all, english is not my first language (Brazilian living in Buenos Aires, Argentine)
    This is my first post.
    4 years ago I bought a male spider and a female pastel.

    Two days ago after 62 days of incubation I got my first clutch. (10 perfect hatchlings)
    I know the odds of that pairing but this is what I got:
    -2 x normal
    -4 x bumblebees
    -3 x pastels
    And one misterious baby (Number 6). I have no idea what it is.
    Can you guys help me?
    Here are the parents and the hatchlings.
    Spider male:


    Pastel Female:


    Some of my hatchlings:

    1-



    2-

    3-


    4-


    5-

    That is a Super Pastel (Pastel x Pastel)

    The only thingi can think of is that your pastel female is a Super Pastel
    thats why you didnt produce any normals

    Thank you so much for your quick response.
    But.. how is that possible? I have that female pastel since she was just a hatchling and she paired with my male spider!

    Question Re: I need your help! First time breeding Ball Pythons

    Here in Buenos Aires it is really hard to know where we get our pythons from.
    I only know the country of origin (USA) and thats it.
    If she is a Super Pastel I shouldnt get any normals and I got two!
