Makin white stripes?

I was kinda surprised how cool this combo turned out. I "think" after he sheds out the purple/grey will stand out more and make him look a bit sharper. Regardless I'm impressed!

Thanks for looking!

Nice snake! Pastel Ivory Axanthic? Where is the stripe coming from?

If I'm not mistaken, the Ivory has a yellow-ish stripe down its back. I assume the Pastel washes that out, and then the Axanthic removes whats left of the yellow, leaving the stripe light and purplish.

...Am I right? :D

Right-o about the ivory stripe, that's where the snake gets it from.

That is awesome!

Ivory is definitely where the stripe comes from! :)

The pastel doesn't really wash out the yellow, actually it highlights it. I believe that the difference between the Ivory Axanthic and the Pastel Ivory Axanthic is the head. Pastel tends to blush out the head and on a "regular" pastel ivory the head is blushed out vs the dark blotchy head of an ivory. The white head on this animal to me says that it has pastel. Atleast that's the theory ;)

Hope that helps and thanks for the compliments!
