really?? because part of the reason we are here is to educate people new to the hobby. for that reason alone you cant run around calling a snake a pastel if its not. and, no disrespect intended, but the OP confirmed that they were going to breed this animal. what if the majority of a clutch of normals was sold as "low grade pastels"?
doing something because it "makes you happy" does not make it right or responsible.
OP, you have a beautiful snake, btw.
