Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Find out from another source exactly what traits a Pastel is noted for having.

I posted information to help someone out, not to get into a long discussion with you about who knows what.
Many years of actual experience breeding anything will show a broad example of whats produced and any person doing this has hands on experience and knows exactly what the outcome can be.
If your relying on the internet and asking around for your information be prepared for the wrong advice.

Hey, you are the one that brought up the topic of "experience." And you are still talking about it in your second paragraph.
I don't care if you post a book to help someone out, I just happened to disagree with you. Perhaps I should not have said those words, since you seem to have taken them personally. However, I think anyone asking questions should be exposed to a whole range of responses so that they can make a decision.
BTW...speaking of experience...I have always been able to tell my animals apart and haven't shipped any animals that are supposed to be something else yet. Pastels may have a wide range of eye colors, however..as far as the rule is..it's "generally accepted" that Pastels have greenish eyes.

Good question, Harald!
I couldn't really tell; it does seem to have a faded head, but I do go by eye colors in making a final decision, because of an experience in breeding that resulted in some VERY light normals that could have been mistaken for Pastels.

it would show what the snake's belly looks like
All the pastels I've looked at (which pretty much consists of mine, and the very few I have inspected at shows) have had clear white bellies.

Clear belly normals are common, they normally have brighter colors.
Some hold back these to breed later on as some have produced some very different offspring.
