I think it would produce 50/50 because spider is a dominant trait...

There's no such thing as a "jungle pastel" ... it's "pastel jungle" which is the long form of "pastel" ... A lemon pastel is just a specific bloodline of pastels which in my opinion makes better bees.

spiders are co-dom, bees are double co-dom
from bee x normal each egg can be a normal,pastel,spider, or a bee.

The spider gene and the pastel gene will be independent.
The probabilities when breeding a bumblebee to a normal would be
25% normal
25% pastel
25% spider
25% pastel spider (bumblebee)

vaughn,
Spiders are thought to be dominant aren't they? At least I haven't heard of a "super spider" yet!
Pastels are co-dominant, with the monozygous being the super pastel.

Isn't that just the coolest thing ever!!! ... I really love balls (pythons)! :O :twisted: ;)

Re: A spider mated with a Pastel would produce what?
yes there are dominant, no visual super has been confirmed yet that i know of.
i just label them as co-doms when talking genetics, keeps it simple in my head for me.
