    Banana Bumblebee or Banana Firebee?

    Ok, so I recently got this banana bumblebee for a fair price. I'm very happy with him although he is a bit small for his age.
    Anyway, when I went to pick the snake up, the breeder said he is a possible fire. I've compared him to many photos to banana bumblebees on google and WOBP. I did manage to find a picture of a coral glow fire bee but I really can't see the differences.

    Can anybody give me some help identifying him?









    He was bred from a firebee to a banana pastel.

    Can we get a photo of him outside in natural light?
    Even inside just really need to see him in natural sunlight

    We don't get much natural sunlight in the UK!

    But here are some new pics:

    looks just like a banana bumblebee the fire gene really makes colors pop in a banana or anything else for that matter
    good looking bee tho

    btw those second set of pics were spot on looked good nice lighting no color distortion those are what are needed to help identify morphs
