I was perusing Petco, and to my utter surprise came across a Pastel Ball Python sitting amongst the normals with their typical stuck sheds. While my cell phone pics aren't too good, I assure you it was a pastel... and not a too bad looking one either. It had a $79.99 sticker price. While overcoming the initial giddyness of coming across a morph in the "wild", I thought better of purchasing it. Mites, quarantine, and the unknown gender crept into my head (I've already got a male pastel that I'm breeding). Here a couple of terrible pics:





Well if Pastels can make it to the most Southwesterly Petco in our country (just a hop, skip, and a jump from the Mexican border), I can probably safely say that BP morphs have officially gone mainstream.
