Yes, I understand that a Pastel is a Het form.

But it is a Het form visually. To refer to it as HET Pastel is to imply to the general public that it is normal. Generally speaking, that is the reasoning behind the LACK of using this term, for obvious reasons.

Why not just call it a Pastel. Really.........
That is what has happened to genetics in the Ball Python Industry, when someone says Het pastel people automatically think recessive, which I was trying to correct.

I agree people leave off the het because it is unneccessary and can cause confusion. I just don't like people being ridiculed and made fun of for something they aren't wrong about.

I personally call it a pastel, and as stated before, its all sematics
