Ok, i suck at this but every knows that already.

Super Pastel leopard + some kind of yellow belly complex stuff (i think i am seeing a little red)

Trick Super Pastel?

Either Super pastel leopard ghi or pastel leopard ghi!

Thanks everyone for your replies! So almost everyone I have shown this little guy to has said that it has leopard or some kind of pattern morph. The interesting thing is that this guy was produced by pairing a Pastel to a Mojave. It's not a pastave, so it's just a pastel as far as I know. To complicate matters much more, this same pairing produced a BEL last year and I was attempting to prove that it wasn't a case of retained sperm or Parthenogenesis by repeating the pairing. Even worse, last year only one of 6 eggs made it full term and this year 7 of 8 eggs died during incubation. The male did sire another clutch last year and there were a few interesting babies, but nothing like this. Here is a pic of the mom and dad.

Looks like a Pastel Jungle to me, every now and than people will hatch them, they are not genetic however, jungle is just a wacky pattern.

Any chance that pastel has Russo het luecistic? That might explain the crazy pattern and the bel.

That's definately on my short list of probable possibilities. I didn't think its would mess with the pattern that much though. I guess I'll just have to wait another year and repeat the pairing again to get a better idea of what it going on.
