    It seems very few people understand a punnet square so why bother trying to explain how and why a killer bee is a super pastel spider, but *not* a super pastel bred to a spider.

    SORRY!!!!!!!:8::rofl:

    Wouldnt a super pastel X spider give you bumble bees, spiders, and pastels? Well in theory.

    super pastel to a spider will give you bumble-bees and pastels only. You will NOT get normals and you will not get a plain spider. Because a SUPER pastel will make every single animal a pastel. There for if you get a spider it will automatically have the pastel gene, therefore making it a bumble bee.

    Sorry, you will get no normals breeding a superpastel to anything. Everything will at least be a pastel. Breeding a superpastel to a spider will give you pastels and bumblebees. Thats all.

    I'd also like to direct our newer members to a great sticky at the top of this very forum to help explain genetics:
