How can you tell a pastel from just a colorful normal.

Also my normal baby is very colorful and has lots of yellow and a salmon hue to her sides. She is developing some blushing too.
Will she lose this coloration as an adult or is there some chance she will keep some. She is an early 04 and is 20 inches long. She was a farm raised ghana baby and I got to go through the wholesalers batch when they came in so I got first pick.
I also picked up a nice black back and one with almost no spots on her patches and another same as the first female but with more black spots. I did not sex them till 5 months later and ended up with 3 female and 1 male (the black back)
I ended up with a breeding group by accident but I have not decided if I will actually try breeding them or not.
I breed chams and leos just for fun and am dying to try to breed ball pythons for fun but will I be able to find buyers for the babies if they are normals? I want to do it for the experience and hobby of it but don't want to get stuck with tons of babies.
