    how do you make a bumblebee
    you make bumblebees with a spider and a pastel rite. and what percent chance do you have in getting one?

    Any given egg within the clutch has a 25% chance of hatching out a bumblebee....if you start with a regular pastel and spider. :)

    no, if you tried a super pastel it would be a killer bee

    Actually, a Super Pastel bred to a Spider would produce roughly half Bees and half Spiders. In order to produce a Killer Bee, both animals need to be at least a Pastel (therefore being either BeeXPastel, BeeXSuper Pastel, Killer BeeXPastel, Killer BeeXSuper Pastel, Killer BeeXBee, etc. etc. etc...)

    A quicker route to them would be to buy one already hatched. :P

    I'm not sure exactly what you mean by "continuously producing" them....you mean like how could you insure that every egg hatched is a bee?

    ya. would you have two bees and breed them and get all bees or what? what are they, recessive, dominant, co-dominant?

    Re: how do you make a bumblebee
    Oy.... let's see...

    Both genes (pastel and spider) are visible in their heterozygous forms...meaning they are either co-dominant or dominant. Pastels can produce a homozygous form, (super pastel) but so far as we can tell, spiders can not. All spiders are currently understood to be heterozygous...so you'll never be certain of getting a clutch that is 100% spiders. But with a super pastel, you can count on all its babies being at least pastel (+ whatever it might inherit from its other parent)

    SO....if you bred two bumblebees together....you could get some pastels, some spiders, some bumblebees, some killerbees (super-pastel-spider), and maybe even some normals.

    If you bred a killer bee to a spider, you'd get all pastels and bumbles in the clutch.

    If you bred a killer to a bumble, you'd have a chance at pastels, bumbles and killers.

    Hope that makes sense....I'm really too sleepy to be trying to type all this out!

    Re: how do you make a bumblebee
    sorry one more question. can you get at least two bumble bees from a spider+pastel in one clutch?

    Re: how do you make a bumblebee
    If you are lucky, yes.

    25% chance of getting them PER EGG. So yeah, you have a chance.
