Age vs Size in discoloring

so is it the snake's age or size that contributes to its discoloration such as the browning in pastels?

I have a feeling it's simply age.. I have female morphs that have held their color up to and past 1200 grams and so I really think age plays a huge factor..how? No clue..

I'm no expert, but I have to agree. Maybe it's something along the lines of why humans and some mammals hair turns gray with age...

gotta be age. You can power feed and get a snake up to 1200 grams or more and they won't lose their color, but take a snake give it 4 years and you'll see the color difference.

That's my story and I'm sticking with it!
