    What is this Ball Python?
    I bought this boy as a Super Pastel Caramel, but just wanted to make sure I was right on identifying this properly. He has a blushed head, so I can see that being a Super Pastel but I just like to make sure :D

    Do you have reason to doubt the person you got it from?
    It's very pretty, too bad about the tail kink. I could see if being either a pastel caramel or super pastel caramel. I would think it would have more blushing but they are so variable, that isn't always the case. Comes down to knowing what the parents were, trusting the breeder and when in doubt (if you planned to breed him/her) - prove it out.

    Not sure if this will help or be more confusing, but here are some pics of my pastel caramel which imo could pass for a super. I trust the breeder I went to that she is not one. She's still a juvi and her yellow is a bit washed out in this pic due to the flash

    I probably won't be breeding him due to the kink, I don't want to breed genetic kinks into my projects. He also has what looks to be a start of an RI, so I have him quarantined and I'm starting the Tylan dosing tomorrow.
