    What makes the best bee?
    So all you Ontarians know, the CRBE is coming up and I'm super stoked. I'm looking to pick up a female snake to make some form of bumblebee. I have my trusty male spider so in theory I need a female pastel something. I love bumblebee babies and I get disappointed at them as adults. So I want to add a clean up/brightening gene. These are my ideas so far:
    1) Firefly female
    2) Pastel YB female
    3) Enchi female (then pickup a male bumblebee when she's ready)
    4) Super pastel female (again male bee when she's ready)

    If anyone has a suggestion that I haven't listed, I would love to hear it. I have about 6-800 to spend so keep that in mind. Thanks dudes.

    Not all plain ol bumblebee's are bad, IMO. Here's mine at 1060. I think she is great the way she is-

    That is what I want ?!??!? Howd u do that? Can you post a baby pic?

    I believe I was told to look for the lightest yellow babies. They seem to hold the yellow better. The dark ones brown out most. Is that right?

    I'm super jealous of your bee! Amazing!

    I will try to dig up a baby pic. I didn't make her, she came from a breeder on kingsnake in Colorado. I got her around 80 grams. She was super bright as a baby. Her feed card she came with said "Sunshine Line Pastel". Don't know what that means, but I sure like her. :)

    Ok, crappy lighting, and even crappier cell phone pics. Don't even do her justice, she was much brighter than this pic looks

    True, but unfortunately they don't fit in my budget.

    I'd probably lean toward the Firefly!

    We have a Lucy Bee that might be making out to the show! Come by for a visit and say hi!

    A POG would be great for making a hypo bumblebe (not sure of the trade name for that one, though)
