bp slowly changing colors?

do normal bp's ever have color change throughout their lives? it seems like my bp had his normal colors but some of his "fade" parts are starting to lighten and it seems like the colors on the top of his head and neck are starting to lighten. once i grab my dads camera to use or find another i can snap some pictures for a before-after to see if i'm crazy.

My adult bp Kaybe is a cinnamon pastel; and this was very, very apparent when I first got him. As he's grown, his darker colors have gotten much darker, almost hard to tell where the cinnamon brown parts come in... Unless he's under clear lighting, it's hard to tell. He also used to have a very paternless back when he was a baby, like most cinnamons; As he's grown though, his few spots on his back have grown to be a few lines, and less of a black back as expected. He's still a cinnamon pastel; just not as strikingly obvious as when he was a baby. He's still just as gorgeous to me. So yeah, in my opinion, some bps can have some color change as they grow.

it would make more sense to me if mine was getting darker because i've seen them naturally do that, but i've never noticed any actually losing dark pigmant and getting lighter and different looking patterns.

My normal gets lighter pigmentation and every couple sheds he even got green bits on his tail after his cloaca so I think its very possible

He might have the same skin condition as Micheal Jackson.
