    Super banana
    Was thinking about getting into breeding in the future, and was wondering how a super banana is made. that's just a banana bred to another banana correct? I did take genetics in college but that was human genetics I'm not up on what certain breeds of snake morphs are , sorry if this is a dumb question!


    i have a bannana honey bee currently and was wondering if this could be a possibility.

    Yep. They're made just the same as any other super form - Male X x Female X = Super X (or at least a chance at them).

    To make a Super Banana you need to pair a Male Banana to a Female Banana, this clutch will give you 25% Super Banana 50% Banana 25% Normal (Those re chances per egg)

    The biggest problem you will run into is finding a banana female. The banana gene is "normally" found on the male or Y- chromosome. You're probably looking at paying 2-3x the asking price of a male to get a female around $600-$700. But if you have the money go for it the banana superform is pretty sweet.

    Yes, Banana females are less common and more expensive (as are all females of the more common morphs), but that doesn't mean they're hard to find at all. Your genetic explanation is off though. There are sex-linked characteristics associated with the Banana gene, but it's not as straight-forward as you have described.

    Males have 2x Z chromosomes, no Y
