What makes a bumble bee?

Killer Bee has been around longer...

Pins are newer.

It makes sense.

But if a kingpin can be produced in 1 yr and a killer bee takes atleast 2 yrs (if your lucky to get a male to breed the same yr he was born) if not it takes 3 yrs... Its like saying a recessive combo like a pastel clown is worth less than a kingpin just bc the pastel clown was produced first when in all reality the pastel clown takes longer to produce which makes less available to buy... Doesnt make any sense at all.

Now you are throwing recessives in the mix... TOTALLY different now.

Be it as it may, there is a reason for the market to be the way it is. Demand, production, etc...

Pastels and spiders are a lot more common and less expensive than Lessers and Pinstripes. That should and does reduce the value of the combos based on those morphs. I'd expect the kingpin price to drop faster than recessives and supers once the component morphs become more common.

Recessive or not its still the same process and same time difference... It takes a minimum of 2 yrs to make a pastel clown if your lucky just like it takes 2 yrs to make a killer bee if your lucky... I guess to me it makes more sense that single base morphs are the least expensive... 2 combo morphs are next expensive and so 3combo morphs are even more expensive...etc... I understand supply/demand comes into play and kingpins arent all over the market it just seems odd to me that killer bees arent more expensive since they take longer to produce.

They don't take longer if you have the right ingredients :)

OK OK so ya got me there :)

Bees and Killer Bees are only a double combos, it's just that in the killer form, one of the gene sets is matched.

It's all about the supplies of Platinums and Pinstripes right now, which are currently lower than Pastels and Spider.

Sorry if I missed it but if you breed a bumble bee to a pastel what are the %'s for the different morph types

Since a super pastel isnt a base morph how is a killer bee not considered a tripple combo?
