Actually Opal is not new, it was a term used back when Super Pastels were first hatched. It just seems to be making a comeback as of late.

Well, here's some contrast for you with my lemon and how he's aged:

These are the first pictures that Adam of 8ballpythons sent me of Winston and said he was going to be a smoker as he grew. I will admit that when I first saw them I went ....um....ok.... (Adam already knows this story).

Adam says "trust me - he's going to be HOT!" - so, I trusted him. Next pictures I get of Winston are:

and

I still wasn't convinced he was going to be "all that", but then one day Adam and I were talking and he said "wait until you open that box, you are not going to believe how hot Winston is now" (now, Winston was "picked out" in September of '06 but he wasn't shipped until late January of '07 because of my time off limitations).

So, I open the box and I find this:

oh no - wait - this:

and over the past year, he's gone on to this:

and this

and this

and my favorites!

Bottom line - find a breeder that you trust. I trust Adam implicitly. Despite my initial - "ok, whatever you say, Adam" reaction to Winston's first pictures, I'm glad I trusted my breeder, and I couldn't be more thrilled with my lemon pastel!

Pssst....it's the female normal in shed, my friend! :P

Winston's head is in the back of the picture just peeking up behind her back.

Ok I'm going home to get more sleep. :D
