The boas are not advertised as Motley Ghost, they are advertised as hets. for Motley Ghost.

It does get difficult and confusing the more morph genes you pack into one animal. IMO Pastel TH Motley Ghost is correct.....

Pastel - while not a single gene, since both parents were Pastels and all the babies show pastel traits to one degree or another, all the babies are Pastels.

Triple het -

Het Motley - Yeah, is a visual pattern morph but still is a het
Het Hypo - Also a dominant morph, still is het for Hypo
Het Anery - recessive morph, Mom was a super ghost so her babies are 100% het Anery

Combined together, those three traits (in a visual form) would be called a Motley Ghost. So, since they are het for all three, are TH Motley Ghosts. Very similatr to TH Moonglow, the difference being Motley instead of Albino.

And yes, they don't look totally like Motley Ghosts, very much like DH Ghosts don't look totally like Ghosts.

You've got quite the group there. Those should make for some great motley ghosts in the future. My motley girl from you is going great, and I look forward to watching her grow up.

Thanks for sharing these pics.
