    about killer Bee
    HI!
    anybody can teach me how to calculate the genetic of killer bee ,i m very confuse about it !

    for bumble bee X super pastel we got the gen

    P2S (P2--pastel) (S--- spider) ----bumble bee

    P2P2 (P2--pastel)(P2--pastel) ---- super pastel

    so bumble bee X super pastel

    P2S X P2P2

    1)P2P2 super pastel
    2)P2P2 super pastel
    3)P2S bumble bee
    4)P2S bumble bee

    so how come we will got killer bee ???
    what is the killer bee's gens???

    thank you very much to everybody ,please teach me in simple graph form !

    You did your computation wrong.

    Here are the possible outcomes:

    1/4 pastel
    1/4 bumblebee
    1/4 super pastel
    1/4 killerbee

    Re: about killer Bee
    this is MY way - some may agree, some not...

    bee x super pastel =

    ...... N.... P.... S... PS
    P..... P....PP...PS...PPS
    P..... P....PP...PS...PPS

    N = normal
    P = pastel
    S = spider
    PS = bee
    PP = super pastel
    PPS = killerbee

    a killer bee is a super pastel spider. However, you can't get super pastels from a super pastel, the super pastel parent only passes on ONE copy of the pastel gene, making all offspring fathered (or mothered) by it at least a pastel. In order to keep producing supers, the other parent must also have at least a single copy of the pastel gene. To be guaranteed to produce supers, you must breed two heterozygous (super) animals together.

    i think the rest of your question may have been answered in the rest of the post :)

    so you mean killer bee is come from bumble bee X pastel not super pastel X bumble bee?
    i m sorry i m a newbie of ball python and i dont know much about genetic !
    thankyou very much

    hi ! Alan

    as bee come from pastel and spider ,why it still carrying the Normal (N) gen?

    pastel gen = P2N (co-dominant)
    Spider gen = SN (dominant)

    Pastel X Spider

    P2 N
    S P2S SN
    N P2N NN

    1)P2S (bumble bee)
    2) SN (spider)
    3)P2N (pastel)
    4) NN (normal)

    form the above ,it can show bumble bee do not contain (N) normal gens ,agree?

    thank you very much:)

    You can get a Killer from super to Bee.. in fact you get better odds of if that way

    You can get a Killerbee by breeding either Pastel or Super Pastel to a Bumblebee the difference will be your odds per eggs.

    Pastel X Bumblebee

    25% Pastel
    12.5 % Spider
    12.5 % Normal
    25% Bumblebee
    12.5 % Killerbee
    12.5% Super Pastel

    Super Pastel X Bumblebee

    25% Pastel
    25% Super Pastel
    25% Bumblebee
    25% Killerbee

    thank you very much:)

    any combo that carries a homozygous (super/same) gene pair within its genetic make-up (ie: super pastel, killerbee, superblast etc) will NOT produce any normals
    a bumblebee doesnt have any 'super/same' gene pairs, therefore will be carrying a normal gene, therefore will produce normals

    Another calc that can add %'s and you don't have to search for every morph, just type it in.
