Wow beautiful looking pastel. LOL I just figured a way to take better pics myself. Burgundy comapred to a normal. Digi cameras can be confusing.

We have never had a Pastel that way but we do have a Hypo male that started out and has remained that way. As you know Balls are usually very easy going so the behavior is odd. Ours hissed and bit from eth start and still does, and he also will deficate and urinate on you when you handle him. We have seen this in other snake species but never before him Balls. We basically decided to just not handle him much as obviously this is a fear response as in all other ways he is very healthy.

Im not saying all pastels are nasty but 90% of mine are, my Orange Ghosts are mean as sin,our cinnamons will bite every time, and ALL of my pieds are Satin.(i guess i shouldnt complain i never have a problem feeding them). The spiders and caramles have very good dispositions, and the albinos dont bite but they huff and hiss like crazy. This is again just my experience with my animals. Also all of my het Alb are nutty they will tear you apart if you give them the chance. Cant explain it. All of my animals are housed the same feed the same and cared for the same. Some are just nasty i guess.
Nice Pastel. Good luck !!
