    Craigslist pickups - ID help please... (PIC HEAVY)

    I checked my local CL this afternoon which I usually don't bother with. I rarely see morphs and they're usually overpriced. Today I came across this ad that made me scratch my head a little. The pics in the ad were crappy cell phone pics so I called, arranged to meet up and check them out and ultimately picked them up. I popped to confirm sexes on all of them and I paid less than asking price and picked up all three in the pics, so I think I got a pretty good deal no matter what...



    The first one was the one listed as a dark pastel ghost. I initially thought black pastel het ghost from the pics, but I'm not sure. The colors on this guy look more like cinny to me. Opinions?







    and the cool alien pattern right behind his head...



    Next up is the one that was sold as a yellow pastel ghost. She's in shed which is making it even harder for me to figure her out, so I'll get new pics of her once she sheds.













    Sorry for the bad pics. They were just some quick snaps my friend took for me before we put them into their QT tubs. Thanks for looking and for any opinions on the ID...

    First one is cinnamon, second one I would assume is an orange hypo, but hard to tell until she sheds.

    1st is a Cinny. As for the 2nd, I'd wait until he sheds out to ID him

    I'm leaning towards Cinny on the first one as well.

    The second one looks a little "Lesser-ish".

    I agree that the first one is a cinnamon. The second doesn't look like a pastel at all to me. If the shed comes out clear then you know that you have a ghost.

    I can tell even in blue that the second is a ghost. I will definitely confirm with the shed though. It's the pastel part that I'm questioning as I'm not really seeing pastel in her either but thought it might be that ghosts get THAT hazy when in shed. The pattern isn't saying pastel, but I don't know if anything else is going on with her yet...

    Thanks for the responses so far... Keep 'em coming...

    No Pastel, just a Hypo.
