Holdback Lesser Pastel

This guy just shed out today, and I really wanted to share him, since I havent really yet.

Sorry for the snoopy pics, I was just so excited to share, since Im so proud of producing him! He looks so different from any of the Lesser Pastels I've seen, almost neon!

Here he is with one of his siblings, also a Lesser Pastel, I just really wanted these next few comparison shots with some siblings, to show that YES he really does look like that...The difference is unreal!

And the funny thing is, the one on the right was my original holdback, because its nice as hell! Nice and pale, looking like all all Lesser Pastels ive seen before... But as they grew, it quickly became apparent something was different about the one Im now holding back, in a good way!!

And here he is with another clutchmate, a Lesser female that I sold to a friend, which recently came back here.

I cant wait to throw this guy on my Pewter female in about a moth or so! Should end end with a hell of a "who's your daddy clutch" if she ends up going for me :)

Thanks for looking, and sorry for all the pics and babble, I was just excited to share :headbang:

Wow he GLOWS :O.He is definitly a keeper :gj:

Top-Notch Holdback! Congrats!

Wow, that is some serious yellow! Nice lesser :gj:

some beautiful keepers there!!! nice one, i envy you.

i have a pastel, and just got a lesser female which i hope to breed soon and have some ones like you, i wish you all the best with your future breeding of those amazing looking balls! :bow:

I would be proud of that too, very well done. Don't apologize, post more!

Thanks a lot guys! Im just so proud of him! Its such a nice feeling with all the money Ive spent, that I personally produced probably the nicest snake in my collection, using my selective breeding ideals :rockon:

Selective breeding rocks! You are not going to produce above average, high quality offspring using just any old snakes you can get your hands on, as breeding stock! Dont let anyone tell you any different :gj:

He is a beauty, just stunning. I'm hoping to hatch a few of those thise season.
Congrats on the killer hold back:gj:

He is really really amazing!!

Wow is really hot!!! Congrats on hatching that beauty! :gj:

My plans with him this current season, are to breed him to a Pewter, a Pastel and a Spider... After that, who knows? LOL Im more of a live for the moment kinda guy :P

Its funny you mention the Calico though, as that is one of my few longer term projects... I want to breed a Queenbee to Calico, I think adding Pastel and Lesser to the "Calider" combo, would be the bomb!!.... Between that male above, and my LesserBee male, I have 3 shots at a Queenbee this year(Maybe Cinny Queenbee?) so hopefully I can get that rolling :gj:

Thanks so much for the nice comments everyone! As Ive already said a few times, Im quite proud of him :)
