Hi! He's a Pastel Cinnamon Mojave, but you are right, he looks very very close to a Pewter! (thought so too when I first saw him ) and they sound lovely! always great to meet other people with the same passion!

Thank you for the tip! I know, I kind of have a problem with the humidity situation. In germany, we currently have 90% humidity 
oustide, so 45% to 50% humidity inside. now, I already tried multiple things with ventilation and sizes of water bowls, but whenever I close my enclosure, when I use for example cypress, the humidity shoots up to over 80% and just stays there for days on end. decidet on aspen for now, because then the humidty goes down to like...60-65%. I would be inclined to think that my hydrometer broke or something, but it reads the correct room humidity (according to friends who have hydrometers installed at home). Not entirely sure whats going on there. will def order the AcuRite though, just to be sure! thank you for the tip on this one! am a little nervous that its actually far too dry in his enclosure without me realizing.

Ahh, yes, high humidity regions would make a reason to keep them on aspen, but be careful the humidity doesn’t drop too low and be vigilant for mold in case the humidity is still too high for the aspen to retain correctly 💜 and if you ever run into shedding issues, just let me know and I would love to help out. My Dumeril’s boa was a rescue and has a lot of scars, so problematic sheds aren’t new to me, haha. 
I’ve had AcuRites for a while now and honestly they work the best for our enclosures. They’ve worked excellently for us keepers in the US and I hope they work for you!

Also, he would be a Pewter Mojave then Pewter is the combo of Cinnamon and Pastel, so when another single gene is added that doesn’t produce another named combo such as Sterling (Cinnamon + Super Pastel), it becomes “Pewter ___”. Cinnamon is my favorite gene of the Royal Pythons by far, so you chose well!! Best of luck with your little bud!

I'm keeping a close eye on the aspen, so far, so good. The little guy is in blue right now, so I misted yesterday to give him a small humidity boost, so I am extra carefull about mold. I might try to just bake the hell out of cypress mulch/let it dry out, and try that? should help with the mold threat. Got the AcuRites, and it did show a slightly lower humidity, but still in the low 60s. it does seem much more accurate tho, thanks for the tip again and also for the offer. like I said, he is getting ready to shed, so I'll gladly take the offer should there be any issues. I can imagine that with scars shedding can get quite tricky Oo.Glad that she's in good hands now!

Oh and I feel stupid now XD thanks for letting me know, I thought they where their 'own' gene. that...explains a lot tho XD

but yes, Cinnamon in general is super pretty!

Heya! Breeder said that he is a Pastel Cinnamon Mojave

I'm new to the whole Ball python gentics, so I am not sure

thats so cool! will def do, hope he will take his first meal without issues. I know they can be a bit iffy, would just be nice it would work first try

I am super happy to finally have him here! you should, but do a lot of research beforehand

Took me over a year to finally go through with my plan on getting one

Don't worry, I have been thinking about it for like 3 months now so it's a very recent project. I am obviously going to need to do A LOT of research as these are unusual animals and I already have discussed with some snake owners to get some infos. I think it will take some years because I plan to get one when I finally have a job so I have no problem for buying its food or taking it to the vet
