    Need clutch ID help please!
    Hey everyone, need some clutch ID help on 2 clutches. The first was a Pastel Vanilla x Pastel (which I was told by a few people who saw the Pastel Vanilla sire that they were all 99% sure was a super vanilla pastel) so I was pretty set on the clutch being all vanillas.....until a butter pastel popped out of the egg. :weirdface I went back to my records and sure enough a full year prior (exactly one year to the day of hatch) the female locked with my butter. So.....now with a split clutch I am not sure who sired who and am confused on who is carrying the vanilla gene (this is my first vanilla clutch). I am sure the 2 normals that hatched out are normals. I am also 99% sure the 2 pastels (#2 and #4 in the photo) are just pastels. The two snakes in questions are #1 and #3 in the photo. I thought #1 was a super pastel and #3 was a pastel vanilla. But I have had people who have seen her in person tell me #1 is a super pastel vanilla because the color is wrong for a super pastel (she is very pink). Both are female, I will be holding them back. But would like some input please. Also, FYI this clutch has shed and have eaten a few times.

    Here is #1, #2, and #3

    The second clutch in question was a Pastel het red axanthic x Pastel. Out of the 8 egg clutch I got 2 super pastel het reds, 2 het reds, and 4 of these....they are either REALLY nice top notch pastels, or super pastels. At first I thought they were normal pastels, but putting them next to the pastels in the above clutch, they appear to be supers. These are all males (that is the way my clutches go, they are either all males, or all females...figures!) And FYI this clutch has NOT yet shed, not sure if that will make a huge difference or not.

    For a reference, here is one of those males that I believe is a super pastel, in the middle of #1 (super pastel/vanilla?) and #3 pastel vanilla? so you can compare.

    I sure appreciate everyone's input. The 4 males are way nicer than the 2 pastels in my first clutch. The more I stare at the them the more they all start to look the same...like being in a perfume store too long. :weirdface Thank u so much!
