Guess what I found?

But didn't get at my pet store?

A pastel male! I went in to see if any adult females had been surrendered, and they took me to an enclosure where they had four juvie snakes that had been traded for a turtle. One was a pastel male. They were all about 300 grams, I'd guess.

I said "this is a pastel!" He's like, "it's just a ball python to me". I'm like "but it's a pastel!!!!" He's like, I don't care, I just want to sell it. $50 for a pastel male. Since I have Winston, I didn't need him, but I called mxrider here on the forum and told him about it, so I think he's going to run up there and get him.

Had it been a female, I would have purchased her on the spot! LOL

Trey - post pictures if you get him!

haha...will u call me when they get an albino in? :D

haha....NO! :P

OMG! :eek: I wish i could find something like that! i would've snatched him up on the spot!

Haha, me too! Nice find!!! There's a shop near me that has a hatchling female pastel, but she's low quality and they definitely know what she is--$599 last I saw. ^-^ I hope somebody who knows what he is gets him!

He got him! Hopefully he'll be here later to post some pictures! Good luck with that boy, Trey!

Waiting for the pics.... :P

Sounds like my husband :8:

Here he is! They charged me $75 instead of $50. He weighs 276 grams and is a little thin. He looks a lot better in person. Thanks goes out to Robin.
