    why pray for the calibee?

    what are the odds? i have a female bumble bee and actually wanted to breed her to a calico as well. but didnt even think of the odds. and dont want to lie, didnt know what a calibee was till just now.

    Man that stripe is fantastic!!!! Although, if that's the breeders picture, you would sure think they could afford a better camera/pictures :rolleye2: Can't wait to see your pics!

    Re: New Purchase!
    Got him today. He has a RI. I'm pretty bummed. I bumped up his heat, took away his water. He is also pretty thin, lots of spine showing. I will post pics soon. I will give him a few days of warmth and rest before I decide if a visit to the vet is in order. :(

    I think a talk with whomever you bought it from is in order.

    That is the first thing I thought when I saw the pic, actually I thought "nice clean bee", then I thought "wow he is thin". I figured he was probably just bred a little to long though. Did you get him to a vet yet? There are many highly contagious things that could be misdiagnosed as a RI, I hope you have him in quarantine, like the other side of the house.

    I talked to the breeder, he sent me some money back to take him to the vet. I just got him yesterday, he is in quarantine. I couldn't tell from the pic, all I could see was an awesome bee :(

    Oh man that really stinks :( hopefully the vet can get things taken care of :( That was a bit shady of the seller to sell you a sick snake, I guess that explains why the camera wasn't a quality one.

    Hi,

    I do think it's worth remembering that the breeder didn't waste any time in trying to make amends once he was made aware though. It speaks quite well to his character.

    As they always say, anyone can look good in an easy transaction - but how they handle themselves when something goes wrong gives a lot of reassurance.

    First thought was also way too much spine showing. I've seen some males breed all year never get that skinny.

    Very pretty though, hope you get him healthy. At least the breeder payed, and didn't leave you hanging.

    Good luck.:)

    Re: New Purchase!
    The breeder was very apologetic, he said it was the first bee he produced and special to him. Doesn't explain why he is so skinny or sick though :weirdface
