    Thanks for clearing that up, you don't know how much that used to bother me lol. I am fairly new to BP's, but I know my way around sort of. I'm just starting to learn all the morphs you don't see that much, so thats why some of them are a little harder for me to tell the difference. But in that pic you can really see the reduced pattern as compared to a normal pastel. But how is that tiger made? I don't understand how you get three morphs in one snake? Weird....Anyone know?

    Well, it depends on if the animal is a heterozygous animal, or a homozygous.

    In genetics, an animal will pass along one gene to its offspring. Since a homozygous animal has two pairs of the morph gene, all of the offspring are guaranteed to get one copy of the morph gene. Making them heterozygous.

    It takes time and years to get 3 or more genes into one animal. ;)

    There's a huge difference, IMHO.

    Here's my lemon pastels:

    Matt Cook took this picture of the male I produced:

    My female I produced:
