    1) look up "homozygous spider." i don't think you should breed a bumblebee to a bumblebee.

    2) yes, there's a small chance of hatching out a killerbee in a bumblebee x pastel breeding. you could also get a super pastel

    3) again, i don't think you should breed a spider to a bumblebee

    male = hetrozygous spider, hetrozygous pastel
    female = hetrozygous spider, hetrozygous pastel

    as for the homozygous spider, people want to claim its lethal with no proof, atleast I have yet to read any, its only a theory. I think more people should breed spider x spider if they can and report with as much detail as possible, mayb we can figure this puzzle out.

    who knows mayb spider is a complicated gene and it can only be hetrozygous for some reason. then you could breed spiderxspider and expect to yeild 75% spiders. If it appears to be lethal for some reason, then atleast we will know for sure.

    but as far as the calculator goes, your not going to know whats truly going on with any spiderxspider breedings til we figure out the puzzle.

    i, too, would definitely like to know more about the "homozygous spider" deal, but personally don't want to breed 2 spiders (or spider combinations) to find
    out.

    i know there's got to be lots more information out there that maybe just hasn't surfaced to the general public yet.

    1. yes
    2. yes
    3. If you breed a spider to a super pastel you can get killer bees.

    Good luck!

    You are mistaken in your answer to number 3. :(

    Spider to super pastel will give you 50% pastels and 50% bumblebees on average.

    Re: 3 bee questions
    yeah i knew you couldnt get the killer from the spider x bumble bee cause you need the supper pastel, that one i was wondering % on.
    so you "cant"/shouldnt breed two spiders? because of possible death to young? and the reasoning behind the death is unsure? i just want to make sure im understanding whats being said
    and are there any other morphs like this that cant be bread into themselves?

    Re: 3 bee questions
    if you want killers
    i suggest you breed a super pastel x bumblebee
    that'll give you 25% pastels, 25% supers, 25% bumblebees and 25% killers!! :)

    i totally agree loser, people need to not talk about stuff they dont understand. theres no proof one way or the other that it is homozygous lethal.

    if for some reason the mystery hasnt been unraveled in a few years i plan on testing it extensivly to try and shed some light on the situation
