Black Pastel??

Aside from the high contrast coloration is there another way to identify a black pastel? I was offered the following snake as part of a trade, but it looks like a normal to me. What are your thoughts?

Thanks

Normal! Those are black pastel http://ball-pythons.net/forums/showt...3-Black-Pastel

That's what I was thinking. All the black pastels that I have seen have pretty distinctive alien heads or donuts along their sides with a nice hard color line. The color of this one, while nice, just didn't look right. Plus the banding across the back seemed weird.

Thats a normal. Black pastels have crazy shaped alien heads with little squiggles in them. Sometimes they float.

:O Black Pastels float?!? Holy cow how come I've never heard about that?!?

Yeah def a normal. The easiest way to recognise them is their pattern and color.

yeah, i'm going to say normal as well, I can see where the pattern can start leaning towards Black Pastel in a couple of places. But that is a normal..
