    Still No Bees
    So far this season I have had 10 eggs from 2 clutches for possible bumble bees. I would have figured maybe 2-3 bees, more or less the odds. This second clutch just hatched and out of 10 we had 6 normals, 3 spiders and one pastel.

    Talk about bad odds.

    This clutch we finally see a pastel. I have a smokin 2800 gram pastel that seems to have reabsorbed 9 nice follicles we felt in June so there goes that shot.

    Oh well there's always next season. Just wanted to share how fun the odds can be sometimes:oops:

    Bummer man. Well goodluck next time. I am keeping my fingers crossed for this season. I will have my Bino, mojo, a few pastels, pastel YB, spider, and 6 or 7 females that should be ready to go,

    Sorry about your luck Raul! Just shows that while we keep seeing these amazing clutches posted here that sometimes your luck can go South. Better luck next time!

    I've got two shots at bees this year, from a male spider to female pastel and a male pastel to a female spider.

    The first clutch yielded 1.2 normals and 1.0 pastel.

    The second clutch (also 4 eggs) is due next week.

    We'll see about the odds evening out or not!

    You should make up for it elsewhere Raul. I feel your pain, as we just had our first shot at Mystic Potions. 4 eggs, 3 Normals and 1 Mystic. Hopefully our second clutch is better.

    Good luck with the rest of the season.
