    Breeding project: Bumble Bees or Fireflies
    I have a male spider and a male fire. I'm getting a pastel female today, but not sure where I want to go with this... fireflies? bumble bees? I just wanted to ask and see what do you guys favor out of these two morphs.

    Yeah, do both. There is always a small chance you get both bee's and firefly's. And I love a "who's your daddy's clutch."

    Good Luck!

    This is all new to me :D
    So I can breed my fire and my spider to my pastel and get offspring that reflects both?

    Yes! As long as she retains sprem from both males. I wouldn't do it at the same time, but alternate males. Spider 3 days, 3 days rest, fire 3 days, 3 days rest, repeat!

    Of course, have two dads of the same clutch doesn't happen very often. But, it does happen. :)

    It happens quite often where a clutch is sired by two daddies, good luck! :D

    go for just fireflies! don't waste potential flies with spider genes. fireflies not only don't have any issue with the spider wobble but instead of browning out like alot of bees they get brighter and better as they grow.

    If I had to pick one I'd go Bumblebee but if I were in your position I'd put her to both males.;)

    Good luck!

    FYI - The spider gene is not a waste!

    Spider's rock! :irkd:
