Is this a Bumblebee?

Hi, Just bought my new snake.
But I'm curious, what morph is this really?
The one who sold him told me that it was a bumblebee but I wonder? :)
It's a beautiful snake tough, and it has green eyes :Phttp://i43.tinypic.com/29o0hee.jpg

yes. a bit dirty but is a bee.

Will his offsprings become "dirty" if i want to breed him in the future with another bee?
just curious :)

That's a bee. A dirty one, but a bee. If you are breeding you want the best quality pastel gene, to hold the yellows. A brown bee will throw babies that brown as well.

Here is my girl at 2000 grams, she is holding her yellow great.

Congrats on the new snake!

Yup, def a bee.

since its such a new user....


www.worldofballpythons.net/morphs is far from perfect, has many mistakes hidden in it, but its still the best reference because it has the biggest database and most pictures.

Also, bumble bee is a combination of spider and pastel. If you would breed it to just a normal, you would get 25% normals, 25% spider, 25% pastel, and 25% bumble bee.

it is a very old and very well-known combination, and most often is produced as a result of other breedings. Like if you breed a queen bee (spider + pastel + lesser) to an enchi pastel (enchi + pastel), you have a chance of getting these, while actually trying for something more advanced with more genes.

And dont feel sad when others say its not a very good bee. Many breeders are on this forum, and with anything that has pastel in it they always try to reduce the browning out by line-breeding. For a perfect bee with close to no browning out at all, you would pay much more, stuff like this is sold from breeder to breeder. For a pet its most important that you like it and that it is healthy. Your snake isnt ugly, its nice, really nice, you can clearly see its a bee, and there are worse ones out there. Its just not cutting-edge, and this forum is a bit harsh in that regard, everything gets compared to cutting-edge, just a few percent of any morph are good enough to quiet the nay-sayers on this forum.

Have fun with your snake! Treat it well, they have a higher life expectancy than cats or dogs.

How tame is it, have you been bit yet? (if it happens its not bad, it heals quickly). You could also make a thread in the husbandry section and give us details about your setup, enclosure, temperature and humidity, feeding, and (if there are any) questions and issues, and people here can help you with basically everything.

I'm not sure how someone could not know if something's a bee, but hey, that's just me. I can see your confusion with this one.
As I shall regurgitate, that's definitely a bumblebee bp. It isn't cutting edge though, but that's nothing to be ashamed of. I like to nickname these "dirty" bees, "green" bees sometimes. :)
Anyway, they're still beautiful even if they're "low quality" and still more coveted than a common normal, spider, or pastel so you should still enjoy it! If anything, it looks more natural than the artificial looking cutting edge bees, and I do agree, it's still quite a handsome snake.

Edit: I do believe this belongs in the "Is This A Morph????" section.

Dont move the thread, he did buy a bumble bee and got a bumble bee, and we are discussing other things now, if anything change the title of the thread.

Thank you for the information Pythonfriend! :)
I'l take a look at that website.
I think he is just lovely, very calm too and he never bites me.. he kinda was my birthday pressent from my husband :P
One question, he cost 360 USD. Is that too much for him you think? sorry but I'm just curious as always ^^
Well either way, i couldn't be more happier for this snake (havn't named him yet ^^) I think he is the most beautiful snake that I've ever had <3

Hey, congrats and all.

Lurk around and read as much as you can. You will be flowing with the BP river before you know it.
