    bee x pastel starting to pip....

    Praying there are a few killers in there...This is from my "fake axanthic bee". He went thru a wierd color change at about 400 grams and has been changing simce. LOL When I first posted a pic of him everyone thought it was photoshopped. He is just a regular bee but looks like an amazing axanthic.
    Here is a pic of him and the first 3 eggs

    Congrats and here's hopping for killer bees!

    Its not unheard of for spiders in particular to lose pigmentation
    Its happens to more than just your bee.
    Google it.
    I know there's been a couple threads on here about this same thing happening.
    Its awesome.
    Wicked bee btw.

    Sookie,

    I know this happens on occasion. I have read about it on here and discussed it after I posted my bee before. I hope he stays just how he is. Thanks for the comments. My fingers are still crossed for those killers
