    Identifying hatchlings
    Just had some eggs hatch and I'm really new to the genetics and identification.

    The eggs are pastel x pastel.

    Was wondering if they were normals, super pastels, or pastels.

    Here are 4 of the 6 the other 2 are still making their way out of the egg. Both of the snakes in the eggs looks like 3 of the 4 with the lighter heads. Only one had a really brown head.

    They just hatched yesterday, August 15th.

    I apologise for the poor quality photos. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...02820ebc83.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...429e17766e.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...44af95407a.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...d5662d69e3.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...4f47e7ea10.jpg

    Second the 3 pastel and 1normal. But I always say to wait for them to shed before making a final call

    Thank you. I'll wait until they shed to make any final decisions

    It's hard to tell because pastels can vary a lot to begin with and look different depending on the lighting in pictures. The one is definitely a normal but I'm leaning towards at least 1 super in that group with how light the head looks. Regular pastel tends to have more orange preshed and not so much yellow but I'd still wait until they she'd and take some other pictures. This is a plain pastel I hatched last year preshed. Lots of orange and not a super faded head.
