    Pastel Goodness (DUW)
    Hey all, I was cleaning up after the youngest in my group, a little late 2010 pastel named Agave..and decided to try out my new camera and lens on him. :P It's in the bathroom, away from the insane cats, so it's not top quality or anything. I love this baby and his gold and mango-y goodness. I'll get an actual light-tent and all set up later.

    :banana: Please tolerate the impending photo flood! :banana:

    "Wut?"

    * He has recently developed five pale scales on his head. Any ideas what it could be? He wasn't injured or anything, even though it looks like a scar. It could just be a few stuck scales though, but it's all velvety to the touch like their heads usually are (instead of flaky), so I can't tell if it's old shed.

    MMMMM, that little guy looks good enough to eat! :D

    I'd be proud to have him in my collection.

    The mark on his head looks to be nothing more than a change in the color of his scales, it happens and is nothing to worry about.

    :rofl: Does that make him an intoxicant? All of my snakes are named after herbs or poisonous plants. :D Agave, Nettles (spider), Briar (normal), Delphinium (albino) and Larkspur the cornsnake. ;)

    More thanks! :D My birthday present to myself was a Canon Rebel T3 and 100mm f2.8 macro lens. You'll be begging me to put the camera down after a while. :banana:
