New Babies - Axanthic Zebra-bee
Greetings, new babies from a clutch this week, a 5-yr project chasing an Axanthic Killer/Zebrabee. Project was breeding Killerbee P/H Axanthic (f) to an Axanthic Pastel male. (SK) Year one she did not go ... year two all slugs ... and last year, she proved out Axanthic with one surviving egg, producing an Axanthic Super Pastel. So you can understand my trepidation this year when she dropped five days early, albeit an ugly and small clutch of eggs. Six initially candled but only three survived. Thankfully I got lucky and hatched a 0.1 Zebra-bee and 1.1 Pastel Hets. Pics below, enjoy!

Re: New Babies - Axanthic Zebra-bee
appreciate all the kind words, patience is definitely a virtue with this hobby! I love the little Zebra girl, fresh pics this am as she finally emerged from shed. Now I'll work on getting these little guys to eat ... they are tiny.
