Pastel, Super or Lemon?

Lets see what everyone thinks

Just so everyone know this picture was taken with a S700 Fujifilm 10xOptical Zoom Camera. It was taken on the "natural ambience" setting on the camera with no flash. And the outcome is exactly what you see, the picture has not been tampered with in any way (other than to resize it).

Couldnt tell ya what kind of pastel... but its a pastel not super... my guess is bell

It is a very nice one, but I have to ask how old is it? That has a lot to do with pastels as some look more brillient at younger ages than others!

Well crud- I thought this was a thread of what do you like better or what should I get~ so I marked super pastel. D'oh! I need to read!! Yes, you have a beautiful pastel and it might be a lemon though it is hard to tell. Can you see any oranges or other color than yellow in it? Sure is beautiful!! :D

Georgeous pastel. I would not call it a jungle. the jungles at all the top sites pretty much have alien heads from head to toe. he has some alien heads, but not very many... I believe that is what makes a jungle a jungle.

Pastel Jungle was the original name given to the morph by Greg Graziani. Over time and with the development of different lineages the name has gotten all jumbled up. Some calling them Jungle Pastels, Pastels, and others by lineage like the NERD Lemon line.

Jungles are another thing all together :)

He was a late 06' and is currently running at around 900+ grams give or take.

hmm. pastel jungle.

looks lemon to me

yep i would say a lemon too.

yep^ lemon

So here's the story on this Pastel.

I picked up this pastel from a good friend of mine that was getting into breeding JCP's and was getting rid of all his BP's. I asked him where he originally purchased the snake and he couldn't remember. So I honestly don't know whether or not he's considered "lemon" or just regular "pastel jungle" or whatever it is people are calling them.

I always thought he was a Lemon pastel because he held his BRIGHT yellow coloring and all of his blushing was really white. His back browned out some as he grew, but not like most pastels. Pictures really don't do this snake any justice, he's more yellow than this picture even shows.

I really just wanted to know what everyone thought, and it seems the general consensus is "Lemon", but i'm just going to sell his offspring as normal pastels, unless they just come out looking way different from other pastel babies that I have.

Lemon means it's a Nerd line. If your not sure, you should not represent it as a lemon.

heh... I may start my own line :P

That's not quite how it works... ;)

Yeah i'm pretty sure you only get to call it what you want when you either get it WC, or you prove the genetics. But we all know that he's a pastel so theres nothing to prove. Either way though.... he's still really really rediculously good looking :D

:lemon no question about it :cool:

LOL, have you ever seen a lemon in person? Not every bright pastel is a lemon...

Actually I have.

I've also seen alot of pictures of what people are calling a "lemon" pastel and even as babies these snakes don't hold a candle to this male. Most baby pastels brown out ALOT as they grow including the lemon ones. I'm not saying that he's a lemon, but he could definitely pass for one. I personally just feel like he's a very attractive male pastel (no matter what type of pastel) and he'll put some more really attractive pastels babies on the ground. :D
