Yep, just a normal hypo, huh?
Just a normal Colombian?
Sorry guys, but pastel is a very viable term for a certain look of a boa. It describe this look very well. I agree that the term is not used correctly 95% of the time, that doesn't mean that there is no such thing as a pastel. Those snakes above do not have special morphs bred into them, but have had a lot of hard work and thought put into their making. As for the person who started this post, I apologize for posting my pics on your post, but they were relevant for where this discussion has gone. I would consider the animal at the beginning of this thread to be a lower grade pastel, maybe just a nice normal. I usually like to see pastels have a bit lighter coloration than that.
