Future Bumblebee Makers

Im gonna have to make a family tree but with different morphs so I can plan out my future buying needs and be able to plan this out so I dont mess it up. Morphing confuses the hell out of me...

Half the babies will be spiders while all will be pastels. You'll get HALF bees, and half pastels. All will be morphs. At least after looking up the info all over again to triple check, this is how it plays out to me.
Half bees is still darned good...
I went with the male spider/pair of pastels, plus an extra fem pastel. It's just how it played out, since I bought the pair of pastels first, then got the spider later. Then was offered a great deal on the other pastel.
The 1.1 pastels of mine are also pHet ghost too! Holding color nicely too.

It's an older book, but "The Ball Python Manual" by Philippe de Vosjoli has a section of combo's and their results. It even goes into a bit of genetics and expected genotypes/phenotypes.
If you want me to, I can make a punnit square with a combo and possible outcomes. It's not to hard to understand once you get the hang of it.

Hope you get your Bees Bud....your going the route I am hoping to ( slight problem ...need a Spider ! ) Gorgeous looking pair BTW.

sent you a pm Purrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrfect9 :P

I want to cross my spider with a yellow belly pastel cross or make yellow belly spiders and cross them with yellow belly pastels? Hmmmmm, or maybe....
Hehe. The possible crosses you can try are endless? You never know? :confused:

I will breed these bees to other double co-dom morphs and see what pops out. :) http://i110.photobucket.com/albums/n...g?t=1178087263

Killerbee adults rock!
