Super Pastel Genetic Stripe?

[reptileexperts]

Alright guys,

So I purchased this girl from BHB a couple months back now, and his records are poor to say the least. But this girl arrived as a Pastel Genetic Stripe, a REALLY nice one in my mind. Then I started thinking about it, and looking into Pastel Genetic Stripes a little better, and even the best representations I can find do not match the quality of this girl. However, when I started looking around at the few shots of Super Pastel Genetic Stripes, it's an instant head / blushing match. So just throwing some feelers out there for anyone with experience with Genetic Stripes. She also seems to be retaining her alien heads a little well, which gave thought to some other stuff that might show up later on . . . she's going to be bred hopefully next year to my Male Pastel Genetic Stripe, I'll post him for comparison. This girl is currently weighing 340 grams empty.

this was just before her last shed which happened last night

So thoughts? I know it's all speculation till next year when she proves out, but I have a very strong feeling she will prove out as a Super Pastel, and this girl would ultimately prove out to be the best deal on any of my balls.

What was the pairing? She is an extremely hot example imo.

Bryan did not respond to my request on parent information . . . hence the speculation!

I feel like we need mr Corey Woods to chime in here. I know he works a lot with the genetic stripe stuff. She is much lighter than ur male there. I instead would breed her to something that wasn't pastel. That way you would be able to figure it out sooner. If you bred her to pastel something, and say you hatched no normals and some supers, you could argue that you had amazing odds. If you bred to a Mojave let's say, and then hatched no normals but had some pastaves, then IMHO it would be a better clue as to if she is indeed a super. Just my .02.

Try calling him. Lori is usually really helpful.

Yep plan to. Usually get one of their receptionist when you call.

I would say super unless there is something else going on, I have a pastel g-stripe and looks nothing like her

[TessadasExotics]

Looks like a very nice Pastel G Stripe.

Comparing pastel GS to super pastel GS on google, then looking back at yours. looks like a pastel GS to me.

Compare them to the ones on king snake for sale and on world of ball pythons. That's where I looked. The two are just worlds different IMO
