    Super Pastel/Lesser/Enchi?

    Need your opinions. I know this snake isn't out of the egg yet, but it's got me pretty excited.

    All the others in the clutch had not only pipped, but had exited their eggs, so I cut this egg to make sure it was ok. Turns out it was fine, just took longer than the others.

    Anyhow. My goal this year was to produce a Super Pastel/Lesser/Enchi - and I think I hit it!!! What are your thoughts?

    It looks right, but I recently got a lesser pastel enchi and his head looks similar. I think he needs to come out and shed first to be certain. I have seen a lot of the SP Enchis having more of the 'totally bald' spots on the head or broken / invisible or washed out pattern over the 'ear' area. I wish you the best!

    Here's the guy I just got - just a regular Pastel but look at that head:



    Then, not my pic but from WOBP, look at the pattern on the head of this super:

    Just hatched pastel enchis and their heads are not that white. I say you have the super.

    Ok, so the snake in question has put on some size now. Although it isn't so distinct I do see a bit of a clover on it's head. What do you think.. enchi, or not?

    I'm not an expert but I don't think you hit the super. However, its beautiful regardless.

    I'm not sure it's a Super either. Just prove him out

    We hit 2.2 Enchi Super Pastels this season. Headstamps are quite remarkable. Here are the two females- in between 0.2 Super Pastels:
