What is the genetic breeding combination required to produce a Zebra Bee?

[slimwhoisdirtay]

I was wondering if someone knows the breeding combination that results in making a zebra bee or axanthic bumblebee. From the information I've gathered from worldofballpythons.com the result will have a dominant spider gene a co-dominant pastel gene and a recessive axanthic gene. Is it as simple as a bumblebee x axantic? On WOB genetic wizard 3.0 that yields a snake that is bumblebee het. axanthic, and wouldn't that give it the necessary recessive axanthic gene?

I'm curious because I picked up a bumblebee female about a month ago and I'm looking to breed her into some cool crosses when she comes of age and producing a zebra bee is definitely something I would consider.

Your bumblebee would have to carry the axan gene as well in order to pass it on. Since Axanthic is recessive it means you need 2 animals to carry that gene in order to pass that on.

Breed your female to an Axanthic male hold back a female Bee het Axanthic and breed it to your male Axanthic and you'll have a chance at a Zebra Bee. Or you buy yourself an Axanthic female now and raise it while you are waiting for a male Bumblebee het Axanthic from your Bumblebee X Axanthic pairing to speed the process.
