Spider, Lesser, or Cinnamon?
Hey,
I've been wanting to build up my "collection" for quite a while now and recently got a bit of spare money that i would really like to use to buy some baby females. I currently have one male pastel and a female normal that will hopefully produce for me this year :please:
I am looking to spend about 600$ and am really interested in spiders, cinnamons and lessers. I am going to an expo this weekend and was wondering what you guys all thought about my situation as far as breeding potential and how far i could possibly negotiate prices. I am in Canada so prices are a little higher.
Let me know what you think I should get or if you have any other suggestions please let me know.
Thank-you

I voted for Spider and Lesser as I am a huge fan of Bumble bees, lesser bees...etc.

Re: Spider, Lesser, or Cinnamon?
Look around at the show and pick one that stands out to you. More important that buying one mutation in particular, you should buy a beautiful example of any of the three you want. You'll probably get more versatility out of a cinnamon or lesser as they are codominant instead of dominant like the spider, but any would be a good choice.

Re: Spider, Lesser, or Cinnamon?
oh, but spiders mix into sooooo many things sooooo well. I voted spider/lesser, too.

Re: Spider, Lesser, or Cinnamon?
Hey thanks guys for voting so quickly. I also agree that spider and lesser would be pretty awesome, but do you guys think it would be possible to get a baby lesser female and a baby spider female for 600$ ?

Re: Spider, Lesser, or Cinnamon?
I voted spider and lesser because that what I just bought a few weeks about a Male lesser and a female spider for about 425

I'm not keen on pricing in Canada as opposed to the US, but if you play your cards right, I'd say you just may be able to.

I voted spider/lesser because you can make queenbees!!!
others you might find interesting are fire, mojo (a really good one).
If you go cinnamon, get a pin as well for jigsaws!

Re: Spider, Lesser, or Cinnamon?
oops, i just realzied you're in Canada like me.
you might catch a good deal on a lesser for 500. Might find a spider for 250. Definetely not females (at least not good looking ones).
From what I've been observing, female lessers go for $600+/-, female spiders $300 +, cinnamons for $300+.
On the bright side, lots of bumble bee males for sale from $600+ (at reptilescanada's forum. Expo coming up too. So you might want to consider selling off your pastel, and not getting a spider. and just get a cinnamon and a bee boy.
Breed that bee boy into your normal and get your pastel and spider back :please:.

Re: Spider, Lesser, or Cinnamon?
i say spider + lesser
or black pastel
a high quality blk pastel is in my opinion, far superior to a high quality cinnamon... i like dark snakes =p
