Currently they just have a pastel or two and a couple spiders, all seem healthy, and then there was the tiny worm I grabbed), some title I don't remember, that the description said comes from breeding spiders and pastels together, so I guess just bumblebee? And then there are rare, which the description said were recessive genes. But they have a sale at the ones around here at least till march 4th where all 'basic ball pythons' are 50% off from their normal price of $90. This pinner had been catching my eye for a while every time I went in to get food for anyone or anything, so seeing she was included in that deal I had to get her.
So do you guys think she's a lemonblast? I didn't think so at first, as most I see are much brighter yellow. But when I brought her home and looked at her more her colors do seem lighter than any other Pin I've seen and that light color on her sides seem to go up much higher, and she has some gold looking speckling on her back, espcially on her neck, that looks like what I've seen on some pastels, and the outline of her headstamp seems lighter in the way most lemonblasts seem to have.
Anyways. She's already proving to have a lovely personality. Barely been headshy at all, and took no patience eating. The first meal I had to drop in and leave her for a few hours, but it was only a few days after I got her and I didn't expect her to be up for eating at all, but I was feeding Rift and Shallan anyways and she was so skinny so I figured why not throw one in and see if she's up for it. Apparently she was. Second meal she took barely a moment to consider before striking. It's feeding day again tomorrow, and I fully expect her to be similarly eager. Much easier than Shallan, who finally started striking when I was present fairly recently.
I'm going to say just a pinstripe, most LB's are a fair bit more yellow than that. My girl is a pretty bright yellow. Good looking snake regardless!
I noticed petco and petsmart are listing BP's around here as normal or "fancy" aka pastels lol. I've never seen anything past a pastel at my local big box stores lol.
