Re: Multiple Morph Dads, to a normal female....combos?
I am pretty visual so let me draw a picture...
It is possible to breed a male spider and male pastel to a normal female and have offspring that is spider, pastel and normal...but it isn't possible as far as I know to get a bumblebee out of that breeding.
Re: Multiple Morph Dads, to a normal female....combos?
By breeding a pastel and spider both to a single female, you will get spiders, pastels, and normals. Nothing else.
You have to remember that in order for any animal to be conceived, it a copy of chromosomes from the father and a copy from the mother.
If the mother is normal, she can only give normal chromosomes. :rolleye2:

I agree. We ran several co-dom males through the same normal females this year and produced some clutches that had two morphs in it (none with 3 though).
This next season, I think I'm going to try running some co-dom males with a morph female and see what happens . . . I'm trying to determine if the probablity is impacted if the sperm from more than one male fertilizes the eggs in a clutch. In other words, can I cut down on the number of normals using mulitple males? I don't think so, but what the heck . . . it's fun trying. :carrot:
Here is my first clutch with more than one morph (pastel and mojave):
