    Bee or SP?
    I have a female pastel and 2 males up to breeding size: 1 pastel and 1 spider.

    Just wondering your opinions on which I should breed to her! any preferences on bee's vs. super pastels?

    here are some pics to help:

    Female:

    How about both?? Although I think the anticipation of waiting to see who the daddy is would probably kill me.

    If it were me and your female is pastel - I would breed the spider to her - hope for a male bee, and in a year shoot for the killer bee. Can't see the pics but that's what I would do. Cheers

    I was thinking of that too, hopefully I hit the odds!

    I did the same pairing a few years back.(Spider x Pastel) Got a male Bumblebee in 2011. Bred him back to mom (Pastel) this year and got my Killerbee....and a Super Pastel along with 3 Bumblebees and 2 Pastels. 5 year project, but definitely worth it.

    That's a nice looking spider. But why not throw them both at her, and let nature decide!

    Don't throw the pastel male in with the female. you can only get normals pastels and super pastel. After the super pastel there's no more levels to climb unless you raise up another female. Go with ms2 tip.
