    I love all the 'experts' in here telling this guy what his snake is.
    Especially people talking about the importance of being forum 'veterans'. Can't be an expert without your internet ten-year.

    Hope it proves to be something cool. If not, great looking snake anyways.

    No one has said his snake and it's off spring aren't cool. But, he came on here and presented a Pastel Black Back as a new morph, which it clearly is not, and then got Signal 20 uptight when that fact was pointed out to him.

    If you put onions on my hamburger and tell me it's cheese, I do not have to be an 'expert' to tell you it's wrong.

    The fact that you got a snake off of cl and proved it out to be genetic without knowing what it is is aeesome, congrats. But that doesny change the fact that it looks like a million (sarcastly) other pastels we've seen, with or without the BB. Ftom the pictures you have shown of the one clutch you have prodiced, the "BB" and the "pastel", obviously arent genetic together, and you just got lucky with the odds gods. With that being said, until we see something that doesnt look exactly like a ton of other snakes that we know exactly what they are, alot of peoples minds wont change from the black back pastel idea.

    Whether or not were right, congrats on some nice looking babies. I personally wouldnt mind having the 4th one pictured in the first set of hatchling pics.

    thank you, you hit the nail on the head with that statement, the snake was purchased without knowing what it might be, regardless of what it looks like. i put the time, effort and money into proving what it was. like countless of other people who take on dinkerer's ( just made that word up also by the way) hope to do. to me until proven other wise, by me it is a new morph even if its just in my camp.

    the point of the original post was for some constructive input, not for the "experts" to rip my snake or me apart with comments like, low grade pastel etc..ect.., so of course im gonna go on the defensive!

    it doesn't matter what it is, they are nice snakes an will produce and if it is the new holy grail hopefully the haters have 10 grand to spend, if not it keeps me entertained lol..
