    bumbleebee

    i am only new to keeping royals, i got my first royal in june, a het pied, and i am planning to get a female het pied in sept, but i already have many plans for the future, as i am only 15 it will have to be in teh future, after uni. i plan to eventually make a queen bee, so i plan on buying a lesser in a few years as a friend will have some, then a after uni i will be buying a spider and some sort of pastel to make a bumble bee to breed to the lesser to get queen bees
    i like the look of bumble bees but have seen some that seem to fade out in the future, once i eventually buy my pastel and spider, what should i look for to make a nice yellow and clean bumble bee, what should i look for in a spider?? with the pastel, would a super pastel be better, as i prefer them any way cuz they are more yellow, and keep there colour. so would a spider x super pastel produce a nice, yellow and clean bumble bee?? help
    sorry for the huge long essay lol, i think i got carried away, sorry

    Ok firstly a super pastel will not make your bumble bees brighter You will get more bumblebees from the clutch as you have an extra pastel gene.
    The clutch would look something like this (if you use a super pastel):
    50% Bumble bee
    25% Spider
    25% Normal

    I think

    If I where you shop around for a nice pastel ask for pictures of the parents and you'll now which one to choose Also choose a very bright pastel, the brighter the pastel the brighter the bumblebees

    I don't know much about spiders I am sure others will help.

    P.S I also got the same plan Just want to breed before I got to university

    Hope all the information helps

    Re: bumbleebee

    Just so you know, if you use a super pastel you wont get any normals.

    Super Pastel x Spider
    50% Pastel
    50% Bee

    Pastel x Spider
    25% Normal
    25% Pastel
    25% Spider
    25% Bee

    If you want something that will really stay yellow, try throwing fire or enchi genes in there.

    I think so. Just to be clear, I'm talking about a snake with pastel, enchi and spider genes. Sometimes regular enchis are called enchi pastels and just an enchi/spider cross gives you a stingerbee. Still very cool but not very yellow.
