Genetic Question about Supers

Hi,

i will jump right in with giving an expample with what i don't understand.
Queenbee(lesser,pastel,spider) X Pastel =
Normal
Pastel
Lesser Platinum
Lesser Platinum, Pastel
Spider
Spider, Pastel
Pastel
Super Pastel
Pastel, Spider
Super Pastel, Spider
Lesser Platinum, Pastel
Lesser Platinum, Super Pastel
Lesser Platinum, Spider
Lesser Platinum, Spider, Pastel
Lesser Platinum, Pastel, Spider
Lesser Platinum, Super Pastel, Spider

Now when u breed Queenbee X Superpastel =
Pastel
Lesser Platinum, Pastel
Spider, Pastel
Super Pastel
Super Pastel, Spider
Lesser Platinum, Super Pastel
Lesser Platinum, Spider, Pastel
Lesser Platinum, Super Pastel, Spider

- How come the Normal and Spider morph go away when u breed the Superpastel ?

- And does this go for all Supermorphs ?

The answer lies in the fact that the Super Pastel has two pastel genes, not just one. It is the homozygous form of the mutation. Therefore every animal will carry at-least one pastel gene no matter what the animal is bred to.

The Spider gene doesn't dissappear but the Spiders in the clutch do.
There will be no Spiders in that clutch, i think that is what the topic starter meant...
