Breeding Bee combos?

[Galaxygirl]

Surely there's a massive chance of wobble when you're pairing Bee combos together ??

Wobble is always present in every spider combo.

Wobble is always present in every spider combo.

What do you regard as a 'combo' ?

I have a Caramel Albino Spider which has no wobble whatsoever ...... I have no intention of breeding from it though .

Every spider has the potential to wobble, doesn't matter if it is in a combo or not. When a ball python has the spider gene, it changes the pattern, but also changes them neurologically, it is more noticeable in some more than others, but the change still happens with the gene. You don't get one change without the other.

Your original question asked if breeding spider x spider would result in a massive chance of the wobble, the answer is no. It is the exact same chance. Here is why:

Male:	Spider
Female:	Spider
Percent	Fraction	Traits
25%	1/4	Homozygous Spider
50%	1/2	Spider
25%	1/4	Normal

normals obviously have no issues, the spiders made from spider x spider are still heterozygous spiders, there is no difference between them and one made from a spider x normal pairing. The homozygous spider is the elusive one.

Thank you guys for making this post more of a conversation then an argument. I'm glad that there are so many open minded breeders here. I paired my female killer bee with my lesser bee and on 21NOV she laid 6 good eggs, no slugs and all candled with strong veins.

Awesome, keep us updated on hatching. Would love to see pics of the babies

Update on my lesser bee X killer bee clutch. Out of the 6 good eggs, we lost 2. One on day 35 and another on day 42 (today is day 44). We did have an equipment malfunction right before the first one started to go bad and that was also when the 2nd one sunk in though it lasted a bit longer. I do believe that malfunction is the reason they died, not because of the pairing. I did dissect the 2nd one to turn it into a learning experience and if you wish I can post them here

details on the malfunction and a seperate thread with a graphic warning might be best, but im am interested

Literally was just going to post that on my Bee breeding thread with almost the same caption. How are your eggs doing? When are they due to hatch again?
