Can someone post a pic of a pastel albino ball python. I know is boas these are sunglows but do they have any special name in the ball python community?
Thanks!

I thought Sunglow Boas are Hypo x Albino.......not Pastel x Albino

You thought correctly. Hypo x Albino = Sunglow.

Not as interesting as I though but nice though. As for my mistake above I know hypo X albino are sunglow. It was late and I made an honest mistake but as always the reptile community will put things straight when required.
Happy Herping,

Hi All,.....I think you will find that the hypo used in the boas to make sunglows is actually a form of codominant hypo. In reality the pastel BP is also a codom hypo. So are fires. Both different in their own right.......In boas you can actually make super hypo sunglows at least in theory.....So we BP lovers just happen to have dom/rec hypos then presume it was what makes the Sunglow. I think a pastel albino is the boa equivalent to the sunglow.... Although the caramel glow blows them ALL out of the water. JMHO!!! God Bless, Lee
