Q: Possible Super Pastel?

Well I bought this girl at Hamburg last Saturday as a Pastel, she shed today and I noticed her head is very light and she reminds me almost of a Super Pastel.  Anyone think she might be or just a pastel with a light head?

 

Thanks

Oh and the pictures on her page are before she shed, these I took a few minutes ago

Nope! Looks like a really nice pastel. She will darken up a bit with age. My moms male looked just like that as a baby! He's a really nice pastel and has held a lot of color.

She's a nice pastel! Honestly, I'd rather have a killer pastel over a super pastel anyday ;)

Supers tend to have super blushed (almost purple-white heads) with lots of blushing throughout the pattern making it lighter. Color is super either.

My Pastel girl from The Snake Keeper, looks exactly like yours.  Just a stunning Pastel.

I missed Hamburg this time around. I'm looking forward to the next one though. I always tell myself I'm only going for supplies but I almost always bring something else home.. LOL I'm running out of room now though. I don't want to go to racks because I really enjoy watching them in naturalisitic terrariums.

Thanks guys, I figured she might just be a very nice pastel, but never hurts to ask.  Best part is I only paid $80 for her!!
