    I would agree but with mum being a BEL, and most are thinking Lesser Mojave) then all offspring must either be lesser or Mojave

    True. Then this would probably be a more accurate guess:

    Lesser bee
    Pastave or lesser pastel
    Mojave spider
    Mojave bumblebee
    Pastaves

    Only thing I think is weird is that the one I previous though to be a bumblebee does not look like it has either mojave or lesser in it, looks like a regular bee to me.

    Re: Help identifying bel complex hatchlings

    What I’m currently thinking is the following.

    - Queen Bee
    - Pastave
    - Spider Mojave (Spider lessers are very distinctive)
    - Pastave bee (Mojave Spider Pastel)
    - Pastel Lesser?????? ( really don’t think so because again Pastel lessers are very distinctive but the don’t look like Pastaves either)

    This is where I’m beginning to think that perhaps she may not be a Lesser Mojave but then again like I said she produced 3 fire lessers (or so we still think they are) with a Super Fire last year. This guarantees at least Lesser is involved in her genetics but not sure of what else

    Again agreed. That one along with the last two seem to be bumblebees and pastels however that’s not possible if produced from a BEL.

    This is mum in case it helps anyone at all with all of this

    Re: Help identifying bel complex hatchlings

    All depends on her....
    This BEL came from a Pastel Lesser to a female Mojave....
    Need a little more weight on her to prove out if she is a 2 gene or 3.....


    Dont have any recent photos at the time..

    Maybe his bel has pastel in it?

    Im in the same boat as you lol This is my bel, she came from a mojave x butter pastel clutch. I also need to prove her out to see if she's carrying the pastel trait. She should be ready to breed this fall hopefully

    I am inclined to agree with you. My guess is that your BluEL is more likely a Lesser/Russo or a Lesser/Mocha and the animal that people are calling a Mojave Pastel is actually just a lower expression Lesser Pastel

    So what you have is:

    QueenBee
    Russo (or Mocha) Bee
    Russo (or Mocha) Spider
    Lesser Pastel
    Pastel Russo (or Mocha)
