    Which male should I breed to my bumblebee female????

    My males

    Mojave
    Hypo cinni
    Mystic
    Fire

    I know, nothing to special to choose from, but this is my first year back in the business since I lost everything in 2p10 from hirricane sandy.

    Which male should I use for her and why?

    I would go with Fire as I really enjoy Fireflys and the Fire bee is quite cool too. But that's just my preference.

    Fire. I think the gene will help clean the Bumble Bee up as it ages.

    If I had to pick from those the hypo cinni, but honestly, I would upgrade to a better combo male. Should never breed a more valuable female to a less valuable male. Get a 3 gene male and make a great clutch.

    It's a bad idea to dual-sire a clutch from a recessive male and a non-recessive male, you won't know if any babies are het or not.

    I would put both the mystic and fire males to her.
