What Morph?

Hello there!

I am a complete newbie in BP world.
I have got my snake a month ago, and I was told she is black pastel morph, I was wondering is it for sure?

So here are the photos:

Her name is Merida, and she is a complete sweetheart, we already went through our first shed and mite fight( hope it was the first and a last one!), so that's the reason she was on white paper towel.

Thanks for any replies!

Nice looking Black Pastel.

Where did you get her?

Lord Sorril.

Ah so she is a black pastel that's great and thanks!

and also do you know what the cost might be for black pastels? I am completely clueless in the subject of morphs.

I got her from the pet store named Urban Jungle, pretty decent shop, well made for reptiles.

Hahah thank you! I know she is so so pretty. Merida is also the first snake I ever held and I totally needed to have her.
We already had a successful fight with them, so now she is free of mites :D

A higher quality specimen can fetch a significantly higher price and a female either at-or closer to breeding age is worth more.
Keep in mind: It is not always about market value, it is about how much someone is willing to spend :cool:

As stated previously: Morph market gives a good estimate.

Thanks! I already checked a lot of husbandry topics and other, at the beginning I was more worried about my noodle than Merida ever was :D
I'll check the website and if any questions I'll definietly ask them on the forum, thanks!

I agree mine is priceless for me, I am totally in love with her haha, but I am still amazed how the morphs can be so beautiful and how others can be so expensive and other so cheap.
Thank you for the replies :D
