    Pastel Orange Ghost or Pastel Het Orange Ghost
    I have a pastel that I hached out last year. She was an ugly duckling, but I held her back because she looked different then her brother. I also held him back. The pairing was a Pastel to a het OG. I'm thinking maybe Pastel het OG to a het OG .
    She keeps changing and is looking more like a Pastel Orange Ghost. She has a lighter head, more blushing , and a hazy look between her sadles.
    I'm sure she is at least het OG.
    What do you think

    Its not terribly uncommon for het ghosts to be a shade or two lighter than ones who arent hets. Im also going with her being het, the black areas are just too dark to be a visual ghost.

    Just from looking at the head it doesn't look to be a visual POG. The heads on POGs are incredibly faded, even white-ish.

    Here is a head shot of my POG when I first got her:

    Thanks the pics really don't do her justice, she has really turned around from what she started out as.

    not ghost for sure, biggest give away is the pairing was a pastel x het ghost. hets do show a little bit sometimes, that's most likely what you are seeing. hopefully she will prove out.

    A ghost sheds completely clear like an albino sheds. Your snake does not look ghost to me and I would bet you can see a pattern(black) in the shed.

    I guess I wasn't clear on my post. It was a Pastel possible het OG to a het OG. (I'm thinking maybe Pastel het OG to a het OG .) I've never really considered him a het, because there was only a 50% chance of him being het. The sire came for a Pastel to a het OG pairing. sorry for the miscommunication.
    That's why I was asking for opinions.

    I don't see hypo. I would call it a pastel, pos het hypo.

    This is what my POG looks like for comparison of the lightness of the head:

    I agree with the above. POG's are quite obvious as babies; they don't start off dark and get lighter.

    I will agree she is not a Pastel Orange Ghost/POG. However, I do not agree that she is a reg Pastel. If you will notice, she has a hazy look between her bands. She also has a dingy gray inside her bands. I have several Pastels, and they all have crisp lines.

    If will notice my Orange Ghost has the same gray mark, and so does my 100% proven Female Het Orange Ghost.

    This is a pic of the hatchlings from the three egg clutch. There where two sires, a Pastel poss het OG, and a Orange Ghost, to a 100% het Orange Ghost.

    I ask for opinions, and I guess that's what I got. Opinions
    So with that being said, I guess we can agree to disagree.
    I guess I will just have to prove her out in the next year, or so.:snake:

    Pastel het Orange Ghost. I have never really heard of hypos having any markers as being het, but if there is, I would definetly say she is het OG. She looks nothing like my other pastels. The camera doesn't pick up her color, or the hazy look as well as you can see in person. There are parts of her, that if you just looked at that part you would say it was a hypo. I thought at first she could possibly be a low quality POG,That's why I was asking for opinions. :snake:

    Well a Pastel Het Hypo isn't a visual combo, so all I see is a reg. Pastel...From the breeding you did of course it could be a het Hypo...No way to know for sure until you breed it though.
