I believe the odds of producing 6 for 6 pastels from pastel X normal is 1 in 64.

because now some other poor sod will get an all normal clutch from the same pairing to statistically make up for yours!

My first clutch ever was a pastel to pastel breeding. Out of 6 eggs, I hatched 5 normals and 1 pastel..... 0 Supers!! Oh well, them's the odds.

Awesome odds! I don't think it is typical, but that's so cool.
My odds thus far:
Clutch 1: Pastel x normal.. 6 Pastels, 2 Norms.
Clutch 2: Pastel x normal.. 1 Pastel, 3 Norms.

Ball pythons: 1.4 normals.. 1.0 Spider. 1.0 Graz pastel. 1.0 100% het or. ghost. 0.0.8 hatchlings (Pastel/norm), and 4 eggs still cooking. Also 1.0 BCI boa. 0.2 horses (paint mares) 1.0 black cat, 1.0 fiancee, 2.3 clawed frogs. And a ton of freshwater fish and breeder rats.
