    Bumblebees
    Hey guys,
    I was planning on buying a female NERD Lemon Pastel and breeding it to a male spider. Would this make the bumblebee morph? Exotics by Nature claims in their "Collection" section of their site that the bumblebee is a cross between a spider and a pastel jungle. Which is the same as a jungle pastel, right?
    Any light that could be shed on this topid would be appreciated!

    Thanks,

    Yes, Lemon Pastel from NERD x Spider would give you bumblebees. More specifically, Lemon Bee's...but most ppl dont really specify the pastel type in the bee combos (Ie--Bell, Lemon, Graziani, Blonde). Lemon's are my favorite pastel line, and I think you would be very happy with the bee's you can produce from them.

    Yeah all pastel lines will produce bees with spiders

    What do you guys think of this girl, she's an 07? I'm considering picking her up:

    thats probally greenish coloring rather than grey. most bumblebees typically have some sort of that

    You should feel lucky if you produce a bumblebee in the first place, let alone one that nice.
    I hope you don't expect your pastel to stay perfectly solid yellow it's whole life either. ;)

    Hi,

    I can understand why some prefer different looks to their bee's - but I was mainly thinking that lemon bee might make cleaner, sharper, killerbees.

    And what it would do as part of an axanthic killerbee project makes my tushy jiggle. :D
