killer bees?

now do you get a killer bee by breeding a spider to a super pastel or do yoy do a bumble to a super pastel. cause im confused now i read on N.E.R.D. that you just do a bumble bee to another pastel. can someone help!!!!!

i have a pastel pair and a spider female and im not sure how to go about it?

a pastel x spider= bumblebees
super pastel x spider=killer bees

super pastel bred to a spider will not give you a killerbee. You will have to breed a bumblebee to a pastel. ;)

Not quite.

A killerbee has two pastel genes....making it a super pastel. If a super is bred with just a spider...you'll get bumbles, but not killers, because only one pastel gene will be passed on.

Pastel x Bumblebee
Super pastel x Bumblebee
Bumble x Bumble

Those are the only ways I can think of to get a killerbee.

really?

thanks alot for telling me that, i probably would've kept on thinkin that

I believe a Super pastel x Bumble will give you the best odds of making killers. Although...the BEST odds would be killerbee x killerbee. :P

killerbee x pastel
killerbee x super pastel
killerbee x bumblebee
killerbee x killerbee

what are the odds between a pastel x bumble and a super pastel x bumble, because doesn't both pastel and super have the pastel gene to go with the bumble bee?
