Tell me what you think...
I'm still trying to learn about all the different morphs, while at the same time looking to future possibilities (speaking for both my husband and I), so looking for some input. What do you think about these two snakes? I want to get more pictures of these animals, but for now this is what I have to work with.
2 year old male pastel
I don't think he looks too bad. I'm not a particularly big fan of pastel, but do like some of the morphs pastels can make (future possibilities, not jumping into anything right now). May be browning a little bit? What do you experts see in him? What would you price him at?
1 year old butter female
Not so sure about this one. She looks awful brown to me, not the lovely tans and yellows I've seen in pictures. I'm hoping it is a picture quality issue. Please tell me what you see and what you would price her at. Could she possibly produce something nicer if mixed with other morphs?
Thank you in advance!
Why keep a snake? Why keep any animal? Because you enjoy the animal, find something beautiful and fascinating about it, and it fits seamlessly into your lifestyle.

Pastel is pretty cool but that butter is SMOKIN! Love her reduced pattern and awesome blushing. Good pickups!

So that butter does have a nice pattern? I wasn't too sure, the brownness in the picture was throwing me off. But that's why I'm here, to learn more!

The pastel has held his color well, I like him. Personally, I would pass on that butter though.

This is one of the best things about ball pythons. The variety and varying opinions. I'm more of a pattern type guy so that butter appeals to me. Yes she may be a bit dark but some people like that. My ideal butter is this one (psst she's mine so you can't have her lol)

This... I think he looks good for a 2 year old pastel. Based on that pic, I would pass on the butter personally. It could be that the colors are just way off in the pic, but I'm just not feeling it.

The pastel looks great, I would take him for sure, the butter, I am not sure, I love her looks, but its not your standard butter color wise... I do love how she looks tho, is it possible the color is off in the picture?

That pastel is holding his color very well! Could be a potential breeder (though personally I'd get an equally nice or nicer looking female pastel and get a multigene male of your choice). The butter has some potential, I'm a fan of the pattern, but I'd ask for better lit pictures first
