    Super Pastel???
    Once again I find myself deciding whether to buy another snake. Well a friend of a friend is selling a 480g female super pastel, which would work perfect in my collection. I have not seen the super in person but I the seller has sent me pictures. Now does this look like a super pastel to you? If so would you buy her?

    If it is a super pastel it isn't a very good one.

    when i picked up my pastel lady i thought she was a super just in my head for some reason untill i did some research and saw this video..

    after seeing them side by side in a video its kindof obvious whos who.

    i think the easiest give away is the browning on the top of the snakes body. On the super its almost completely gone! Also inside the black marks it is extreamly blushed also the head is super blushed almost silver even moreso than a pastel

    im still new but this is what iv come up with after reading around about it :)

    but remember. a female is a female is a female is a female

    and if the price is right i probably would get her if you plan on breeding in a few years :D best of luck in whatever you do

    just a disclaimer again i am a newb at this ^.^ alot to learn and learning alot

    Really doesn't look like a Super to me, they usually have a very uniform yellow in them. I think it might be a decent Pastel though, just depends on the price. If their asking for over $150 then I would pass and just buy an actual Super Pastel, I think they're pretty cheap these days.

    The first pic is because of camera flash.

    The body looks off from the Flash, but that has nothing to do with the head...Looks like it was using a Turd for a pillow!!!

    Doesn't look like a super. If it is then its a very low quality. Here's a pic of a girl I produced last year. You can see the head looks a lot different.

    If you just want a pastel, she is pretty :) good luck!

    And some turd flavored water... (I noticed all the poop too :rolleyes: )

    Doesn't look super to me. Also doesn't look like its kept very clean. I'd pass.

    X2. Trust your gut, if you're questioning it at all, don't do it.
