Nice looking Pastel.
I can definitely see some Harlequin influence in the way that some of the side pattern 'melts' down from the dorsal stripe.

Snake Evolutions produced a Pastel Harlequin awhile back using their line of genetic Harlequins. Click the link below and scroll down a bit to see photos.

Probably due to the overall variance in Balls given the name 'Harlequin', but yours and theirs have two somewhat different looks.

Yours seems to show a fair amount of the side pattern connecting to the dorsal stripe, while theirs shows alot of the 'floating' side pattern with alot of dorsal striping that DOESN'T connect to the side pattern.

DISCLAIMER: Just to clarify the last paragraph, I'm NOT saying that your or theirs isn't a Pastel Harlequin, I'm just eluding to the overall variety in the Harlequin morph. When I think Harlequin Ball, I think of two things: 'melted' dorsal stripe and 'floating' side pattern. (Just wanted to make it known I'm not poopooing on anyone's project. )

Congrats again.
PLEASE post pics as he grows up....Thanks.
