Hey all, I didn't want to hijack the other thread but here are a couple pics of the pied I have that is believe to be a possible pastel pied. No background on the snake other than he was bought from a breeder and I got him from a girl was selling her boyfriends snakes to pay for bail/court costs, etc for a DUI I believe (I didn't get into much detail it was none of my business). I just wanted a male pied and I liked this snake.
Anyway, here are a couple photos in different lighting with different cameras. He does have green eyes. You can see that in the first photo, although I thought I had a closeup but I can't find it on my computer it may still be on my camera. I will try to look and post a better closeup of his eyeball. I have sent these pics to a couple well known breeders and the consensus is leaning towards pastel, because of the eye color. Heather Wong actually wrote a great article on her blog about eye color in pieds vs pastel pieds.
I call this guy still a "possible pastel pied" because obviously without breeding I won't know for sure. However, 2 of these breeders I spoke with said they think either fire or vanilla. Me personally, I have no idea other than he is much lighter than the other pied I have and the pieds I have seen and had in the past. He's ready to breed, just trying to find a het pied or pied girl that will be ready to go this season for him to get this show on the road!
Enjoy photos, opinions always welcomed!
