    What morph is this?

    This BP is available at some PetsMart stores. I work there and I've never seen one come in. It's shown on the website at 249.99$ Just curious what it could be and how badly overpriced is it?

    That is a pet quality pastel IMO. You can find nicer pastels from a breeder for half that price if it's a male.

    Re: What morph is this?

    I thought it looked like a pastel. I forgot to add that the store employees don't probe the snakes because of the dangers. So you don't know the sex when you buy it. What a rip. A normal baby ball is also 79.99(yeesh)

    That is a normal looking pastel. Not too bad. It wont brown out as bad as some. But they all brown out anyways. You can def get them for less from a breeder or an expo. Any animal you get from a pet store is going to cost you more. Actually anything you buy in a pet store is going to cost you more. The store has to make a profit to cover costs. They have bills to pay. Product to buy and employees to pay.

    The snake is really orange. Orange browns out horribly compared to lighter brighter yellowed pastels.

    Yes lighter brighter pastels dont brown out as much. They all do though. You can tell what area is going to brown out by the brownish orange flecks. That one does not show alot of brown flecking it only comes half way down and its not very pronounced. It does have decent color and blushing.
