    Interesting dinker...

    My original male pastel tends to produce some pretty interesting normals and super bright pastels. The normals are normally brighter than your regular normals and have a pretty decent banding pattern with light spots on the head. The first pic is of 2 females that are being bred back to my original male pastel with an 08 male to show how similar they look.



    And this shows some of the pastels that he's produced as well as the normals. Of course the cell phone pics don't show the color all that great but if you saw them in person you'd know what I'm saying. He's still really bright at 6 years old but he was in shed so I didn't put him in with these. The pastels are really bright...don't seem to inherit the banding too much but its crazy how bright some of them are especially the one in the middle.



    I'm not saying its anything crazy or proven genetic yet which is why I really haven't talked about it much but I'm hoping these few girls take for me and I can prove something out! I'm trying to get a new camera but money seems to disappear too quick around here!

    They are nice reduced banded normals, but they don't have any reeal unusual traits for a normal.

    Not trying to put you down or anything, but those are pretty usual looking pastels in my opinion.
    Not from the brightness, but the amount of brown darker area on top that is apparent seems pretty average-good for a pastel.

    Its all good...I respect your opinion...like I said at the bottom they're not anything crazy or proven genetic yet just an interesting dinker project. Also these are only crappy cell phone pics...so obviously it doesn't show their true colors

    I think they're great looking. I don't know if there's anything to try and dink with, but hey! It'd be fun, right? And that's what this is all about. Gorgeous snakes, hon.
