A spider mated with a Pastel would produce what?

From my understanding the only way that is wrong is if you have a homozygous spider, in that case you would get

Homozygous Spider x Pastel
50% Bumblebee
50% Spider

Heterozygous Spider x Pastel
25% Bumblebee
25% Spider
25% Pastel
25% Normal

I believe then that Bumblebees could also be considered double hets for Spider and Pastel.

Eclark, if you breed your spider with normals and you keep getting 100% spiders, you've got a homozygous spider, and your producing heterozygous spiders. I belive this is a good way of proving your Spiders to be homozygous.

PS - I'm not speaking on first hand knowledge, but this is how I understand it.
