    Re: Mojave or Pastel

    You should go by your own preference , if your getting this snake as a pet go with what you like to look at.

    if you like somewhat darker colored snakes then go with the mojave.
    if you think you'd like a more brighter snake , go with the pastel.

    keep in mind that both morphs change as they grow, pastels may brown out, some a little ;some a lot , as they reach adult size, meaning they will loose their bright hatchling yellows.
    As well as mojaves their vibrant colors as a hatchling will fade into more even possibly greyish hues,though some mojaves do get better with age as their blushing becomes more prominent .

    They are just different morphs that look different. Both are more affordable as far as morphs go, especially pastels. Just remember that you pay for what you get, and plenty of 'cheap' animals are cheap because they just aren't as pretty as others of the same morph.

    Get what you like, what's in your price range, and what you think looks the prettiest
