Couple of these turned out cool!

1st pic Super Mojave, Mystic Potion, Super Mystic

2nd Pastel Calico , Firefly, Black Pastel Yb

3rd Paradox Ivory , Black Eyed Paradox
Odd thing about both my Paradox Ivories is that they both have patches of color very similiar to the Super Stripes?

Looking at that again I just don't see Mojave....... It looks more like a super pastel jungle I guess?????? Did you buy it as a Pastave???? You do have some neat stuff so who knows????

ok my opinion......

the animal on top...looks more like a lesser pastel in my opinion. i don't see the lateral striping that is common with the mojave's. the pastel gene seems strong in this animal. do you have pics of it as a hatchling. it would be a bit easier to tell as the colors would be more vibrant.

the animal on bottom...looks more like a pastel mojave. the lateral striping that is common in the mojave's is present. also the flames on the sides and the tear drops seem more consistent with mojave's, with the flames & blushing being more exaggerated from the pastel gene. The spacing between the drops clearly dictates the Mojaves' genes presence.

Both are good looking specimens….what are the weights? 400-500 grams?

The snake in question is either

1 Epic Pastave

2 Pastave

3 Pastel Special

4 Epic Pastel Special

Parents were Pastel Crystal x Original Founding Special

Does this help any of you?

The obvious looking one is a classic Pastave..

ANY thoughts are appreciated as I'm not sure just what he is as to me I have a hard time seeing any Mojave traits at all in that snake . But hey what do I know !

Best regards,

Yes I am real pleased with how those female Fireflies and the Black Eyed Super are doing Alan ! Just have to start pushing them more to get some size on them as they are at the age now to feed bigger meals.. I do have some males that will go nice with them someday so I need to get to it !

Take care man,

Beautiful snakes Anthony! It's really hard to say which one I like the best. The black pastel YB is very cool as is the paradox ivory. I just love the potions, super and regular. I would be excited about every one.
