Pastel Het Red Axanthic Het Orange Ghost

As you all may or may not know, I picked this guy up from the kitchener expo this past weekend as a mojave. Through rigorous internet research and many of your opinions (thanks for your help BTW) I found him to be a Pastel Het Red Axanthic Het Orange Ghost. Here he is in all his glory!! Jus wondering if anybody knows of any pictures of an adult? I'm just wondering about browning/darkening/lightening. Anways enjoy!!

"If" that het red has pastel it's going to be a very dark adult...

How did you figure out it was a het ghost :confused:

I'm with Jerry. How did you figure out it was het ghost? If the people that sold him to you told you that, I would definately not keep my hopes up. They also told you it was Mojave. Either way, I'm sure you are happy with him and you should be. I would just act like it's a Pastel and breed it to a het Ghost and see what comes out. That way if it doesn't prove out you won't be too disappointed.

It looks like a lighter colored het red imo, I don't see pastel :confused:
Maybe in better light?

IMO I don't think he is a PHRA. He doesn't have a head fade. He has some neat round alien heads but I made some normals with those kind of alien heads. He could just be a pastel.

He got this snake from a guy who got it from a breeder. On the breeders birthing page this snake was on it, and it was labeled as a PHRA 100% het OG.

It's in clutch#5 on the right in the first of the hatchling pics.

Also in clutch number 12, the female on the eggs is a pastel het red ph ghost.

There's also a female PHRA on eggs in clutch 44.

Nice find :rolleye2:

congrats on figuring out what it is :P

How did you go from thinking it was a mojave to "knowing" it's Pastel Het Red Axanthic Het Orange Ghost?

If you read the WHOLE thread, carlisleishere tells the story beautifully. But my version is. Went to a show, bought a snake that was labled mojave, posted it here, peeps said its not a mojave. Place I bought it from said they got him from cory woods so I paroosed his birthing pictures and found my exact snake there. She posted links if u need more proof. I am very happy about this mistake purchase tho!

Score! :)

Regards,

B

Good to know, I've read through your other multiple lengthy threads about the same "mojave" the past few days. I'm glad it worked out for you, it's nice to see you weren't ripped off! Big congrats! Keep us posted.

Sorry to post another thread but I cannot believe someone labeled this as a mojave, you are so very lucky!

I was shocked to find out that the snake I bought for 100 bux (which is still cheap even for a mojave) turned out to be a double co-dom het. I never get this lucky with anything. Looking forward to crossing him to my pastel female and a dinker female. That's not for a year or so. All of em gotta grow up still.

X2, this is the first thing I thought of. Also what breeder would sell something as a mojave that clearly isnt or that is something else that is worth more? Just sound wierd to me.

Have you read the whole post. I got it from a petstore that mislabled him. There are links in the post to cory woods birthing records that shows my exact snake. I trust corey woods IDing. thanks

Ok, wow. Nice pick up. I want to get some snakes from this guy. Bet hes kicking himself right now. Awesome and beautiful snake.

I dont think he is kicking himself, I got it from Global Exotic pets. They should be kicking themselves. lol.
