Baby boa pictures...I.D. question

We picked this little guy up at a show as a Super Pastel. From the reading of done in the forums I'm under the impression that there are no super pastels when it comes to BCI and if anything it's only a very clean pastel. Any opinions on the matter would be greatly appreciated. The pictures don't really do him justice. He looks a bit lighter in reality. I'll have to get him out in the natural light soon.

I have not heard of Super pastel boas, just the pastel, but im still a little new to morphs as well.

If anything, you got one HOT boa!

Looks like just like my Pastel. As far as I know Pastel has not been proven gentetic, or at least thats what everybody tells me. I do know that the breeder I got my girl from bred a Pastel x Normal and got all Pastels in the litter. And I have a male Hypo Pastel so it can be bred into things. Either way its a beautiful snake.

Pastels, in boas, are simply another term for really clean, colorful animals. There are a few lines that are proven to replicate their traits in their young---like the EBV line---but mostly, they are simply very nice looking animals. They're great for cleaning up traits in other boa morphs!

If the boa wasn't sold to you as a specific pastel line, it can't really be classified as a pastel (and no, there are no super pastels).

In any case, you got yourself a very nice looking representation of the species :) He is very clean, and has some nice reduced saddles. I like him a lot!

Thanks everyone for the input and the compliments. My girlfriend picked him out because of his appearance and I was thrilled with her decision. I have a 3 year old female BCI that he may get cozy with down the road. I also have a thing for motleys so a female motley may be the next addition.

Personally, I'm a super motley fan... an all black boa would be sweet to have someday!

He looks alot like my Hypo.
