    Is this just a normal pastel?

    I just hatched this little one. I believe it is just a pastel, thought I would get some other opinions because of the colouring on the sides. Mom was cinnamon, spider and dad was either banana ivory or super pastel lesser vanilla. Any input is appreciated.

    Definitely no pastel. I'd personally say yellow belly but I'm no yb expert

    Here is a picture from above. The fading was making me think pastel

    If it helps, pastels have green eyes and blushing on their heads, sort of in a butterfly shape. I'm inclined to agree that this is likely YB, since that will also lighten the colors and cause some fading.

    Could it perhaps be a sugar/ calico?[not with those parents though hmmm] Has it shed out for you yet?

    Looking just ar the posible parents I'm leaning towards cinabee.

    it does kinda look like there's Calico/Sugar but my guess would be that it's a Spider YB.

    I wasn't told father had any other genes, hard to tell with the ivory banana though, could be I guess.

    It definitely has the spider wobble but I didn't think I saw any spider in it.

    Thanks everyone for the input
