Quick yes or no. Super?

[Philip451]

Purchased years ago as a super pastel. First is his sale thread pic, second is him today (bad pic sorry)
So, Super? Yes? or no.

Thanks!

Lol the first pic looks like a super, but the second one looks like a normal pastel to me

Looks like a super to me.

At first i was going to say the 2 snakes dont even look alike however after looking closely i can see the same pattern resemblance as the top picture. In the top picture where his head is at and left of his head you can find that pattern on the bottom picture on the left side of the picture.. Super Pastels almost look like they have the ghost gene sometimes and as the snakes get older some morphs get darker with age. The bottom picture he looks bigger and possibly in shed? however I would say he's a super pastel because the top picture is so clear.

I vote super pastel as well.

Super for sure. I know it can be hard to tell but the best way to is the super pastel almost completely lacks black pigments and have more blushing compared to a regular pastel. As babies the blushing on their heads almost appear to be white.

Thanks for the input folks.

Hanged if I know. He kind of reminds me of the "jungle" ball pythons that were imported way back. That turned out to be environmental, not genetic. The best idea is to mate him to a normal. If you get seven or more pastels and no normals, then the odds are 99% or higher that he's a super. Good luck.

If it's a super, and mated to a normal, all the offspring will be at least pastel.

I think it'd be better to compare it to the first picture of the lighting was the same. Take one outside and post it here?
On another note, I'm not a fan of pastels unless they're super blushed, and I think you've got yourself a cute one no matter what.
