    New guy with Petco find, what is he?

    Hey everyone, new here! I've had all kinds of reptiles but never gave ball pythons much interest until finding this guy at a local petco. He looks amazing and I figured it'd be nice to have a calm snake for once, so I picked him up. I'm not too familiar with all the new bp morphs out there as I've only focused on leopard geckos in the past. What do you think he is? I tried to get some accurate pictures.

    Wow really good looking pastel . There are tons of pastels, but there are very few nice ones out there. Great pickup!

    Nice one there!

    Congrats and welcome to the forum.
    The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.

    How can you tell a pastel vs a firefly? He looks JUST like my snake but he is clearly a firefly or are they the same thing?

    This pastel looks like a super pastel with all that extra whitening and that head stamp! Nice find.
    Stay in peace and not pieces.
