Told he’s a pastel... not so sure.

[Tytysi]

I have a female Super Pastel (left) from a breeder at a reptile show. I know she is around a year old.

I bought a male supposedly Pastel (right) from a guy online. He is supposed to be two years old.

I want your guy’s input on what he looks like- age and morph. He is SO small and SO much paler than my super pastel and his markings are different. I was told he looks much more like a Majove. IMO the two morphs look very much the same so I’m hoping a trained eye can help out. Also he looks like a baby, under a year old. Maybe males are just this small??

Any help would be awesome!!

Hard to tell on my phone with that pic. I saw the blush but would expect less yellow on a 2 yr old adult. But again that may just be my phone.

Doesnt look full grown to me. But pictures can be deceiving. How big is he. What does he weigh

I don’t have a scale .3.

BUT HE’s just over two feet long at 25 inches.

Hes not done growing. No real way to determine age tho.

Im not too awful worried about it. He’s a cutie and I’m not in any hurry to breed him or anything. Thank you again for all your help!!
