    Different light would be helpful but it appears to be a killer. There is a bit of a band of color though and different light would really help.

    I'd say its a killer, the head is really bald and you have the blue coming through where the eyes are. Also, the cut egg pic screams killer bee. I'd say get some better light and take some more pics of it. Although, I have yet to hatch out any bumblebees or KBs as my first breeding year will be 2014.

    Killer bee!! See how much more distinct the head markings are on a bumblebee:

    I would say Killerbee also. Not enough black contrast to be just a bee.

    Split input begs for pics in better light.

    I second this ^^, but judging the egg picture and head pattern, I'm saying Killerbee. That head is way more washed out and clear than a typical bumble bee. Looking forwar to new pics

    I'm no pro, but that head looks killer not bumblebee to me. But agree, lets see more pics in better light.
    If nothing ever changed, there would be no butterflies.
