    what to mate with a male bumblebee

    I am getting a male bumble bee and I was wondering if anyone had some ideas about what to mate it with?? If I breed him with a normal will I get all bumble bees? or all normals?? and what other females should i mate him with to get some really pretty snakes for my collection? Any input would be appreciated!

    Thanks everyone!

    A bee x pastel, or a bee x pinstripe is what I would do if you have them. But a Bumblebee to normal will give you 25% Normal, 25% spider, 25% pastel, and 25% bee, but those are your chances per egg not per clutch.

    I'm thinking about breeding a male bee to a female pewter, female piebald, and female albino.

    Female Pewter -->

    Percent Fraction Morph
    6.25% 1/16 Normal
    12.5% 2/16 Pastel
    6.25% 1/16 Cinnamon
    12.5% 2/16 Pewter
    6.25% 1/16 Super Pastel
    6.25% 1/16 Sterling Pastel
    6.25% 1/16 Spider
    6.25% 1/16 Bumble Bee
    6.25% 1/16 Cinna Bee
    6.25% 1/16 Pewter Bee
    6.25% 1/16 Bumble Bee
    6.25% 1/16 Killer Bee
    6.25% 1/16 Pewter Bee
    6.25% 1/16 Sterling Bee

    That's pretty sexy if you ask me.

    As for Bee x recessive, you get:

    25% 1/4 Het. Albino/Piebald
    25% 1/4 Pastel Het. Albino/Piebald
    25% 1/4 Spider Het. Albino/Piebald
    25% 1/4 Bumble Bee Het. Albino/Piebald


    And if they baby is male, breed it back to momma.... ;D
    And you have epic win.

    Not to mention it looks like any codom that's het for a recessive is a good chunk of change when it comes to selling.
