Yup, just by looking at it, it has an usual dominant stripe marking. I suppose they must have got even luckier then...
 
Due to my understandings, most of the people that have these kind of snakes are either collectors or breeders. Obviously, if you are a breeder, you are trying to get the market share and make as much money before they become too commonplace.

Acutally, thats just a baby lemon line pastel.

There are a few different lines of pastels out there. The NERD line Lemon Pastels seem to be very yellow and babies and turn out to be very lightly colored adults.

All pastel lines are co-dominant and capable of producing super pastels, which comes from a pastel x pastel breeding. Here's a super:

funny, that's exactly what i posted in my pic, though it was a much sexier juvinile.
 
co-dominant means? that if there another gene, this gene is not going show up?

Eg. If i use a Het Ghost Male and a Pastel Female, whats the result after they breed? like 75% het ghost/pastel? and the other 25% come out to be ghost/pastel?

they would be either pastel possible het ghost or normal possible het ghost the percentage of possible het would be 50%.

so how can I determine if my het ghost is really het ghost or not? if they breed and you said 50% chance, what if all the babies come out to be normal looking? :o (a het morph looks the same as normal)

Breed and Breed till something different? :nilly:

My local reptile store say, if i were to buy a female ghost to breed, the chances are 75% het ghost, and 25% will actually become ghost.. and if my male is normal, then no way I can tell which is normal and which is not.

Breed and Breed till some unique morph come out? :nilly:
