What is a Pastel Ball Python?

Brightened, high-contrast coloring — intensified yellows and golds, a faded/blank head, lighter belly and pale green-ish eyes. Mild on its own but a building-block gene behind many combos.

Genetics
Co-dominant — one copy gives pastel; the homozygous 'super pastel' is much brighter, with a near-white head and purple-grey tones.
Typical price
$40–80 (single-gene)
