NO. The normal offspring are exactly that - 100% NORMAL. Not het for pastel, not het for ANYTHING They are normal snakes with no recessive genes that would eventually throw offspring that appear different from the normal form.

There are the punnet squares for co-dominant genes, using pastel as an example, as generally referred to within herpetocultural circles.

Randy Remington can (and probably will) come on & explain how "co-dominant" is actually a misused term in herpetoculture (yes, I agree, and that's a whole 'nother shootin' match), but for all intents & purposes, we'll stick with terminology that is widely used at the moment, at least until it's understood.

Normals from a Pastel clutch are normals. Not hets. Just, wild-type ball pythons.

Hope this helps!!!!
