Pastel Progression, Come Share

She's holding color very well.

I don't have progression pictures of my pastel as I haven't had her that long. I have this picture I can share though :) I need to get one of moody pants in natural light :)

Miss moody pants in natural light, not very bright at all but wouldn't change her for the world! :)

Not much progression, as he's still pretty young, but here is the before and after his first shed with me. He just shed (near perfect!) again last night, so I'll snap a couple pics tonight.

His first big break in modeling..

I love this little guy! :D

Thanks again folks. If it pleases you, add a pic every now and again as your pastel(s) grow. Just reply to your old post(s) with the same snake in it so they are together for the sake of easy comparison.

Her with some pastel clutchmates, she's the snake on the left. This was probably first or second shed so they're right around 100g here:

This picture was probably taken the same day but it's a solo shot:

With her firefly brother, around 400-600g I'm guessin:

With her mamma at around the same size as above:

Again with firefly brother taken today, they're both just under 1000g now:

Updating mother/daughter shot, 2 generations of pastels. They are pictured second to last in the above pictures. The 2008 female is now just over 3000g(guess she wasn't done growing afterall) and has increased in size by a whopping 50% of her pre-lay weight from last year. The 2012 female is over 1200g now and seems to be holding her colors even better than mom was at her size. Hopefully in another year or two I'll have a 3rd generation to add to these progression pictures. Shots were taken outside, without flash but with a bit more light than I generally accept. Their colors were showing true though so I kept the pictures. You can see the mother is more of a cream colored while the younger pastel is still very much yellow.

All growed up, not too pretty. I think he has another gene in there that I'm trying to figure out
he throws some gorgeous babies though. 3 years old in this pic

My a female graziani, got a great deal on her because she was an ugly duckling
http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t...ed/025-4-1.jpg

3 years later, I love her

One of my male's babies, I believe she carries the same gene he does, so she's a bit ugly

Her a year later

And a different daughter of my male, he throws GORGEOUS pastels as long as they don't carry that extra gene
(assuming that's what's going on)

A year later

And for giggles, my male and his babies, he's not a pretty pastel, but he throws some gorgeous babies!
The orange one in the middle, the "orange thing", is the "gene" I think he carries that makes him ugly.

And this is my male, his two daughters on the bottom, and the graziani female on the top left (no relation)
http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t...psad0d83d6.jpg

That male also just threw this male pastel, I think he is the most gorgeous pastel I have ever hatched!
This is why I don't say "never breed an ugly pastel".
