I would definitely try calling NERD instead of doing it via e-mail. Those two are SUPER busy--I think Kevin's thinking of having his phone surgically installed into his head for better ease of use (that way he can talk on it and wrangle rattlers at the same time). :) And from what Kara's said, they get a GAZILLION e-mails every day.

I agree that all pastel "lines" make amazing combos...however I don't think that a "line" specifies if you have a "good" pastel. I have seen "poor" examples from each line, but then I have seen amazing looking ones.

I love blushing and your pastel definitely has that...he is brown but he doesn't look that old...

I have never had a problem contacting them by email.

Busy they are, especially this time of year. Kara has been working her A... off on the sites and there is a lot of other stuff going on too, shows... may even be some ball python projects going on... but I don't think kevin is into ball pythons... :P

My :2cent:, I think the most important here is how YOU feel about your Pastel, if he appeals to YOU this is all that matter.

that's just about what i was gonna say but u beat me to it! gmta!

What you both said then...LOL :)

There is a lot of wierdness about that snake... like the blushing way up in the dorsal regions.

The sides could be a bit more colorful, but I suspect that it will get better with age.

I have a pastel that I really thought was the world's ugliest. It has matured nicely.

Yes, he does have extreme blushing, or extreme flames... whichever way you want to look at it I suppose.

I'll have to take a more recent pic of him. Those were taken about 6 months ago I think. He's from Next World Exotics, via a third party.

some comparison pics of when you got him would be great

I agree with what several have said here it is more in whether you like the animal or not. I think it is very nice looking.
