Really weird Black Pastel or something else?

[satomi325]

The snake has nice flames. If I look really hard and squint, I guess I can sorta see a Black Pastel. But since its so questionable, why buy it?(As a BP at least.....)
There are plenty of obvious, higher quality black pastels around for a reasonable price.

x2 what Satomi said. If you're looking for a Black Pastel and not some maybe dinker project, actually get a decent Black Pastel.

I remember who I bought every snake in my collection from. If he remembers enough that it came from a "big breeder" but doesn't remember who, then it doesn't pass my smell test. I'd classify that snake as a dinker, not a black pastel.

I would call that a YB, just a darker one, like the SrK line. Flames, hooks, headspot, and belly pattern all suggest YB to me.

EDIT: but i still wouldn't buy it because the seller sounds sketchy, for the same reasons rabernet mentions^

It isn't a yb at all, it looks a lot like my black pastel pos het hypo male though but lower quality.

Wow! That is quite resemblance. Until I saw that though I was thing Pastel YB.

[Mike41793]

Nope I disagree, I don't see black pastel. If it is, its one of the lowest quality ones I've seen. I see YB more than black pastel, jmo.

[satomi325]

I have to agree with Mike.

Aside from the wrong belly, the top view of the OPs snake resembles a YB more than a BP, imo.

I'd look elsewhere for a BP that looks like a BP.

Well hopefully we will have maybe a better idea from some better photos when the OP gets his hands on the animal on saturday, as he stated. I also do not see black pastel. My black pastel isnt the greatest of quality, and looks nothing like that.



Guess you will really have to wait and see what that paperwork from this breeder says, and what happens when you breed the animal to something else....

Dinker. Dinker, Dinker. IMO...and I just like saying that word. Dinker!
