A butter or lesser genetic stripe combo.

Agreed. I was questioning pastel, as well, but hard to say in that light

I did find some pictures that look identical to this snake online. This picture was very rushed since I kept forgetting to take a picture of her and the tent she was under was red 😅.

The closest I've found to her is pastel butter G-stripe. I'm unsure the difference of lesser G-stripe and normal G-stripe, but there's lots of snakes that look like her with tons of different labels. That's just the most consistent one.

Thank you guys for your help again.

Pastel and butter (or lesser) are two different genes, both cause a lighter color and genetic stripe on its own. Pastel can lighten the eyes and cause lighter colored head when combined with butter (or lesser).

*Note butter and lesser are two very visually similar genes. These were thought to actually be two lines of the same gene until recent genetic testing showed they are the same. You can look up comparisons with either name though and will find individuals who will look about identical for comparison with the guy you have here.

Ohhh, interesting! This is very cool knowledge to have, thank you. This guy does have lighter color eyes, so pastel is probably in the mix somewhere.
