Just a quick update guys, my pastel 2014 juvenile just surprised me today with 2 scrubs. She is only 9 mos. old and gave birth last night to one pastel checkered and one granite checkered scrub. She bred to her father by accident on my part but proved out what I was hoping for. Thanks Jeff!!!!!!!!!! Post pics tomorrow!

Jeff, I wasn't doubting your integrity bc I knew it was the dam or the sire who would produce but it happen to be the daughter who produced the granite! The dam I got from you is gravid and this is her third clutch. I am so excited to see what drops from her this time. Thank you for the explanation.

Tommy, that is basically what the story was with me. That 0.1 is a beast! My pastel het granite is such a little thing. Her sibling and her are both small but they power down the food. Lol. I will put up a couple of pics tomorrow .

11913119131191411913O.k. guys and gals here he is. Unfortunately his sibling did not survive. It was born very weak and looked like it was a case of failure to thrive post birth. This guy is making me feel better though. Thanks, and don't underestimate your young girls gartersnake community! I really like this scrub's neck markings and the gap inbetween where the pattern picks up again. That is his mom (9 mos. old tomorrow). Thanks for all the support guys! :):):D

Thanks Indigo and Tom. I wish there was a few more of them. This guy is a definite holdback don't you agree?

I think you might be correct, maybe a pastel granite or a super pastel granite
