EDIT: You can't honestly tell me that the pastel in the OP looks pretty much the same as this one, taken from WOBP:

I stand corrected it was infact satomi325 who posted the photo I was thinking Mike posted. My bad. Mikes photo was the one from WOBP.

Pit, he is indeed a nice looking pastel. I bet you if he is not in the right lighting he does not look so yellow. Also when he is in shed he looks less yellow. Not to mention that his blushing also helps him look much better.

The lighting in that pic isn't anything special lmao. Thats just a quality pastel.

Yea im not sure how big hers is.

Do you have any baby/adult pics of yours?

This guy is an average looking pastel. He was not an ugly looking baby. He is 6 years old and about 2kg. I bet none of you think he is good looking and too "browned out" I can gaurante he makes nice babies.

I will have to do pics of my female later as I dont have access to her pics atm.

Pits pastel is the same size but more yellow...

Your pastel is light and has nice blushing, but is browner.

Guys, do we really need to turn this thread into some kind of ****ing contest?

Yes, all pastels brown out, no matter what line they are or what they look like as babies. Yes, some stay much brighter and more yellow as they age than others do. Yes, pictures taken in poor light with a poor camera can make it harder to tell what a snake truly looks like. No, you cannot make an ugly snake beautiful with bright lights and an expensive camera. No the snake that the OP posted is not in the same class as the higher quality ones pictured, but that doesn't mean it's completely worthless. Remember beauty is in the eye of the beholder. If he goes and sees her in person, and thinks she has potential, then good for him. If he sees her in person and thinks she is not what he had in mind, then he doesn't have to buy her. It's that simple.

Personally, I still think that given a chance and bred to the right males, she could produce decent offspring. Maybe not roackstar quality, but decent enough that people would buy them. But since I have not seen her in person, it is impossible for me to say absolutely she is worth breeding or wow she is totally not worth breeding. Yes, most of us strive to breed the best quality snakes we can, because most of us see far too many poor quality snakes bred by people who just don't care, but we are not the final authority on who breeds what to produce what. That is up to the individual.

I would go to see this girl. Period. Once I see her in person, and can weigh her faults against her good points, then I will decide if she is the snake for me.
