    supprise super vanilla dam to pastel sire ???
    so it all started off with breeding a pastel to a normal female ball python and x days later we had hatching eggs but to my friend's surprise we hatched these beautiful little creatures out here are a few pics of the babies and they are definitely something special, but the thing that sucks is that we lost track of who the mother is ( due to a miss-understanding on my part )

    but do you guys have any idea what these babies are

    and i believe the mother is disco or vanilla or something new !but out of all 5 babies all looked "special" even the normals but two of the babies were a pastel version of this gene so could the mother be a super ?


    P.S. the normal pastel in pic 2 is not a litter mate from this clutch

    How many possibilities are there of who the mother is?
    The last picture looks like a pastel calico.

    there are probably 16 or so females that could be the mother http://ball-pythons.net/forums/image.../icon_rofl.gif we pretty much were setting up a new rack and re tagging all of the normal females and they all got mixed up so we lost all info , all that is recorded is who laid eggs and when (on most :/ ) its kind of a bad mess on my part

    What a mess! thats why I marked my egg tub in the bator, even though I only had one clutch!

    They are pretty babies but I have no clue what they are.

    Pastels until you breed them out to figure out if something else is going on.

    If the mother looks normal, that limits possibilities. Perhaps she is a yellowbelly. I sincerely doubt she's a vanilla, since they are fairly easy to spot once you know what to look for. And the babies don't look Vanilla Pastel to me. Disco I don't have much experience with so I can't say.

    They could also just be exceptional pastels. I've seen it before. I wouldn't call them anything else until you know for sure.

    What are the 16 females that could be the mother? All normals or some morphs? Having a list of possibilities will help us narrow it down.

    The hatchling in the third photo looks like it may be a Pastel YB.
    Can you post a Belly pic of that animal... or you could just ship it to me.

    Check their info and see when each one laid, its gonna be roughly 52-60 days before they hatched. List all those females for us and we will help narrow it down to a possibility. But like someone else said, it would be just our best guess and selling that animal as that morph may turn out to be a pain later on if it is something else, ya know?

    all of the mothers are "normals " i believe we have narroed it down to a female normal that looks like a specter to me i will try to post a pic of her tomorrow. does anyone think this could be possible ? this female is very very very special , she is actually one that caught my eve befor and she is the only dam with a matching lay date so im 99 % sure that she is sht mother of the clutch, do these babies look like they can be pastel specters ? at all

    Unfortunately even if it looks exactly like a spector. Your still gonna have to prove it out! . I suggest holding back a male and breeding it to a yellowbelly. Or pm me and ill buy one from you and help you prove it out!

    That's what I was saying to Robert on facebook. I'd have to see them in person and pics can be deceiving. I'd need to see all the other hatchlings also...
