Craigslist Mystery Morph - Pastel and ?

[laurelcrown]

Hey dudes! Long-time lurker of this forum (like, years). I finally moved to a country where snakes aren't illegal, and got a ball off craigslist :-) I checked her carefully for mites and scale rot etc, and the previous owner was kind enough to feed her live for me, and she downed 1 adult and 2 hoppers. Stoked!

Anyways, he said he has no idea what morph she is. He paid $350 for her (in Canada), and knows she is at least pastel and says there is one other gene. I got her for $50 so I am happy with that, but I'm curious what the other gene might be if that's true. Someone on instagram suggested enchi, but I'm not familiar enough with enchis to identify. Can anyone tell from these photos? She does also have very nice blushing on her head, but she might just be a very pretty pastel.

Sorry the photos aren't great, I didn't think to take better stretched out ones and don't want to bother her again til she's settled in. I'll get some more after that.

I don't see pastel at all really - it looks more like a desert to me?

If it is you might want to read up on their fertility issues.

Agree ^^^ She looks more Desert than Pastel. Definitely not seeing any Enchi.

I don't see enchi either. Nor pastel, I'm not seeing the brown out line. Whatever she is, she's pretty! :-)

I can see the pastel, but looks deff Desert. I'd go desert pastel. But desert is a lot more dominant than the pastel is.

My vote is also for desert with no pastel

This.
Also, based on her price and source, I'd bet the seller knew exactly what morph she is. She's a very pretty pet, don't ever breed her.

Huh! I totally forgot about the desert morph. Cool. I mean, I guess kinda not cool since she can't breed, but she is gorgeous for $50. She does look a lot yellower than in those photos but I'm looking at desert now on google images and I see it.

Awesome pickup !

Yeah man! I'm kinda bummed because I was planning on breeding her before she got up to size, so I'm glad I checked in. On the other hand, that makes her the cheapest prettiest pet ball I've ever heard of.
