HYPOMELANISTIC PASTEL BALL PYTHONS

This stunning "designer" mutation results from two mutations being expressed at once. These snakes are pastels that are also hypomelanistic.

I produced these beauties from a pastel het hypo to a hypo pairing. The hypomelanistic female laid twelve nice eggs. One egg went bad after a couple of weeks.
After 55 long days of incubation, the first snake pipped – a little hypo pastel was poking out from the egg! It was an awesome sight. The fun didn’t end there. Over the next 18 hours or so, four different colors of balls emerged from their eggs. Four different morphs of balls in one clutch – it was so cool to see. The total head count was 4 hypomelanistic pastels, 3 pastels het for hypo, 2 hypos, and 2 het hypos.

This morph holds unbelievable potential! Breed these hypos to produce more hypo pastels and hypos. What will a hypo pastel look like when the axanthic gene is used to "erase" all the yellow? Hypo bumble bees when bred into the spider mutation! A hypo pastel piebald will be to die for!

These hypo pastels are going to be the benchmark that everyone else will shoot for. Don’t start your project with anything less.
