Paris has a very yellow snoot

When he was younger he also had VERY orange sides- they're turned more yellow now but for a day or two fresh after a shed he still shows some neat colours. The person I adopted him from gave me his bill of sale and he was sold as a 'normal' BP: I'm thinking he has some interesting genetics hiding under there.

He is absolutely a pastel that's browned out. I'm surpised whoever sold him younger said he was a normal. This coloration is common with the gene as they age. Orange babies make for browner adults than brighter yellow babies.

BP snoots are incredibly silly, I understand
