I'm sorry, but did you just say you bought a 100% het Pastel BP???

[ADEE]

yeah.. was the 100% het pastel female a typo?

I'm sorry, but did you just say you bought a 100% het Pastel BP???

Yeah I just saw that too. Sorry dude but if thats what they told you then you got ripped off. No such thing as het pastel. there are pastels het for other morphs. got yourself a nice normal though. That last one you got there is gorgeous (the normal male in shed)

I'm sorry, but did you just say you bought a 100% het Pastel BP???

No, its not even 100%, its 50%!!!!!!

[Jerhart]

50% het. Pastel? Uh oh!

Nice looking snake tho!

[BallzOfSteel]

thats what i was told, oh well..only paid $40 for her

[rabernet]

A pastel IS a heterzygous form of the Super Pastel.

It's either a pastel, or it isn't. I hope you didn't pay more for that girl because it was "50% het pastel" since there's no such thing!

[sg1trogdor]

oh well no hets for pastel but for 40 bucks she still very nice. Only animals that have hets are recessive type traits such as albino, hypo, clown, piebald, etc. then you get into co dom and dom traits, The ones that look physically different from a normal (your pastel) then those bred together make super forms.

No, Heather - he said 50% het pastel. (9_9)

Dansballs, there are some pretty snakes among that bunch - but none of them are het for Pastel. Super Pastel is a "Co-Dominant" morph, which means that hets are visible. You've got a male in the first two photos. "Pastel" is the name for the visual het of "Super Pastel", if that makes any sense.

That was a fun show, with lots of pretty eye-candy! Though under budget for herp shows this time through, I did pick up some little girl rat pups to foster into my breeding colony, some photos and information for a friend seeking a cage for her incoming bearded dragon, and as always, lots of good information and great memories. (as well as quite a number of morphs that I previously didn't care much for - and now have an interest in! Black Pastel / Ghost? Oh, _yum_!)

Nice pickups, Dansballs - I hope they do well for you!
