She's a beautiful snake. I'm not questioning that at all, at least not anymore. :-/ I know I did win a little in having a nicer snake, but I love my cranky snakes just as much as I love my affectionate-must-be-close snakes.
---However, the response below... let me know if what she says IS or IS NOT possible. Is it possible to loose that much weight??? I really owe all of you... thanks so much for reading all this nonsense...

SENT MESSAGE TO BREEDER:
Sorry, I would have e-mailed you sooner, but our internet wouldn't connect. The Comcast guy came by this morning; this was the soonest I got back to you. I received her yesterday at 1:00pm. She is in excellent condition, no harm done. I have not fooled with her too much (do not want to stress her out more from her travels), but she does not seem to have the bad attitude you described.
However, there is one serious problem. She ate a large mouse for about an hour ago. The picture link below is the picture I took right afterwards. Any comments towards this???? She is not the 'Breeder' you advertised -- At all. I would not have purchased her if she were below 1000grams. Is it possible you sent me wrong/different pastel???
Thanks,

BREEDER RESPONSE:
It slowed down on feedings around the middle to the end of the month. I had many pastel breeders listed on reptileauctions. Just like my albinos I had a picture of one for all, that's how I usually post when I have multiple animals of the same morph.
Usually just testy because of the time of year. Many of my females get cranky around breeding season, especially all my 3600 gramers. If she is complacent now then good but once she settles in her new drawer watch out. In spring they all settle down to their usual sweet selves : )
As for the weight, when I weighed all of them (10 total) all were at least 1000 with one being 989 grams. The auction had been up for some so weight could have been lost within that time frame. There is a difference between an animal having to grow to 1000grams as apposed to an animal who was already 1000 and just needs to regain some weight. I have also had females give viable clutches weighing in at just under 1000grams and they were overweight.
It is definitely a rat feeder but during this time they can get picky or not eat, I try not to give in an throw in a mouse because I don't think mice are as good as prey items, just my two cents. So during winter you can give them whatever they like but afterward I would try to keep it on frozen rats.
Last but not least it didn't eat for certain when you sent payment via paypal because I thought we would be shipping sooner than we did, but with the delay of funds clearing and the missed ship date that also added to the laps in feedings(note from ill be yoursoldier: comlications led from being shipped, not on a wednesday, but the following week, on thrusday). So I am very confident in my animal and truly believe if you continue to offer food it will keep disappearing LOL.
Just keep in touch, I love to add another contact or even a chat buddy. I don't want you to think its over just because you already received the animal.
Thanks again
