That is a pastel highway. I'll hopefully have some pastel highway babies next year, can't wait!

Not to hijack this thread but isnt it such a shame those pastel highways dont keep that contrast and coloring into adulthood? Love the look of those snakes so much but then i saw an adult. Kinda like coral/banana it all just seems to fade.

hmm, well thanks everyone, kind of a bummer she isnt a morph . . . oh well. she is one of the best normals ive seen. but maybe im biased lol

I personally think she's a normal, possibly a yellowbelly. Would need more belly photos to confirm or dismiss that possibility though. She's gorgeous either way, very rich colors.

EDIT: scratch that, just took a better look at her photos, no yellowbelly.

Yeah, I wasn't sure. I know those two morphs are very similar and pretty subtle. I was thinking the head didn't look washed out enough either, but I'm far from an expert on morph identification.
Thanks for the info.

Don't get too caught up on hoping she is a morph. I think she is just a very pretty normal, which in my opinion is better than having a not so great morph. It's much harder to find a really nice normal than an average morph:)

Totally agree!!

It's a real nice looking Royal and far nicer than a few Pastels I've seen knocking around !!

I actually prefer 'normals' to those new faded , ghost type morphs or the ones with faded head colours giving the impression they've been rubbing their heads on something !!

absolutely beautiful!

I agree she's a nice looking normal but I do have a few other concerns. How close are you with the shop you got her from? It almost sounds like they were just telling you what you wanted to hear. I find it crappy on their part that if a vendor legit sent them the wrong snakes that they wouldn't return or adjust prices to compensate the breeder properly but I also find it odd they'd tell you possible morphs that it clearly isn't if they had in fact received a call from the breeder.

Idk, not very close but still only paid "normal" pricing so it's not like I got ripped off. . . Might have just been they weren't sure what it was.

Looks similar to my normal
