    PS He's a beauty, now find a pretty pastel girl to make some bees of your own in a couple years :D

    well he just got them back from a reptile show, and was shipping the remainder to his other place in canada soo i only paid for as much it would take for him to ship and stuff. he was actually just going to give me one till the other people he works on breeding with said "well lets not just give him one we will just cut him a huge break" soo needless to say i got a good price on him :D

    Lol. I think the guy is a little confused. Most of the time, het means you can't see the gene. You will only prove it by breeding. For example, het albino:

    Now, to confuse you, I suppose a mojave could be het for a blue eyed lucy. Since, the homozygous form is a BEL, but most people just call them mojaves. Take a look at this:

    Read through the morphs. It's helpful for beginners. Good Luck!

    Yeah. You got it, but mostly we don't refer to them as hets. I've heard a few people do it. We try not to confuse ourselves more than we have to :)

    Yes, a pastel is a visual het for super pastel and yes all co-doms are technically visual hets for their super form.

    Congrats on your first morph and congrats on the Spider :) He's a beauty.

    Now he definitely needs to have a date with a pastel to make some bees!

    I just got my Cinny girl and I won't be getting another BP for a few months, but my next one is definitely a spider!

    thanks :) and gratz on the Cinny. the pictures dont do too much justice on him but the back stripe on him is alot brighter than it shows in the pic also where the color breaks up at the bottom he has some orange speckles and yellow that looks really cool.

    I was just thanking about this for a minute and I think the guy might have said something like this. "...hes got some nice reduced striping just like his dad that might be genetic...take this guy to a pastel and you might produce some killer looking bumblebees..." LOL! Boredom..

    I could see that interpreted as something like this.
