he was hatched 6/4/08 and hes doing awesome, got him from hoppers, to rat pups, to adult mice, and eating on a 5 day schedule.... he really has an awesome personality too... just figured i would share what 5 months of growth does for a yearling... hes alot fatter too... BTW the remote is roughly 10" long, and hes NEVER missed a meal yet, for the breeder, and for me...

thanks for looking... :gj:

nice he's lookin good!

Wow, thats a beautiful BP.

Awesome looking pastel:) Ty for sharing!

being that i paid $100 for him from a private breeder, i would assume not but he definitely has the traits ! hes pretty dark now as it is, i gotta get pix with my good camera (not my iphone) right after he has a fresh shed, he looks great... but both of his parents were pastels... the one thing i love is how light the top of his head is, just like a super pastel... the blushing too

this is him about 2 weeks after a shed, the top of his head looks kinda like glare off the glass but it really is just that light

I'm almost sure that hes from the graziani line, cuz with the pattern and color when hes fresh shed, he looks almost identical to this graziani
