    Bumblebee x Super Pastel Butter
    So, I am exploring my options for my next female. I already have my Bee male. I am terrible at Punnett squares, so can someone help me out with what I could get from crossing him to a super pastel butter? Thanks!

    From the Super Pastel Butter 100% get 1 Pastel gene
    From the Bumblebee 50% get 1 Pastel Gene
    50% Super Pastel 50% Pastel
    From the Super Pastel Butter 0% get 1 gene for Spider
    From the Bumblebee 50% get 1 gene for Spider
    50% Spider 50% Normal
    From the Super Pastel Butter 50% get 1 Butter gene
    From the Bumblebee 0% get 1 Butter gene
    50% Butter 50% Normal

    Combine the first 2 (Pastel and Spider) and get
    .5x.5 = .25
    25% Super Pastel Spider
    25% Super Pastel
    25% Pastel Spider
    25% Pastel

    Combine the former combination with the Butter and you get the end results
    .25x.5 = .125
    12.5% Super Pastel Spider Butter
    12.5% Super Pastel Spider
    12.5% Super Pastel Butter
    12.5% Super Pastel
    12.5% Pastel Spider Butter
    12.5% Pastel Spider
    12.5% Pastel Butter
    12.5% Pastel

    If you're having problems with punnet squares check out this site

    It's pretty awesome :)

    Yes there are sites that can do it for you, however I prefer the way I explain it, instead of seeing results you see how to arrive at the results, even without the full on punnet square. A 2 or 3 gene square becomes extremely complicated and often certain things will be scattered around, instead of being nice and orderly.

    Wizards are useful, but learning how to figure it out yourself is priceless. :gj:

    I definitely still want to practice so I can do it myself, but that is a very cool quick-reference tool.:D

    Oh, and numbers to remember: 50%, 25%, 12.5%, 6.25%. Usually thats as far down as you'll really come across. Also, remember that if you are going to get 66% possible hets then you multiply whichever number by 3, getting 75%, 37.5%, and 18.75%, that will eliminate your 2 hets and 1 normal. That's for recessive genes when breeding 2 100% hets together, mind you.
