I'm confused, is the female hypo or 100% het hypo?

The female is 100% het for hypo.

Still trade though!

Sorry for the confusion! The female is hypo, as in she shows the phenotype and genotype would be double recessive. Sorry, I now understand that 100% would mean het for hypo, so Rr instead of rr.

The reason they want to trade is that it is at a local pet store. However i know the whole reptile staff there and i trust them. I have also thoroughly examined the snake and i can find no signs of ticks/mites. If the trade goes through we will have a fecal done at our vet and the snake will be in quarantine for a few months.

I know getting something from a LPS is a little risky, but the herp people are in our local society and they are good people, so i feel pretty good about it. They want to trade for the pastel because no one knows what a hypo is, and unless it is held up to a normal most people don't care to find out. Pastels sell faster at pet stores because you can see the morph a lot better or at least that is how it was explained to me.

Ok then ya definetly do that trade! I think hypo females go for like $400-$500 so thats a really good deal for you!
