Mojave Bee?

[nightwolfsnow]

Went and picked up my little girl from the breeder this morning. She was sold to me as a Mojave Bee. She seems to be a bit pale though, but what do I know. What do you experts think? The pairing was a Queen Bee x Mojave Lesser Pastel. So there's quite a few combos that I have a hard time telling apart It also appears that she is going into shed, not sure though.

Even though she's not as yellow as the Mojave Bumble Bees I'm seeing, I guess she has to be one. Not enough blushing to be the Killer. And if she had any lesser she would have to be a BEL.

That's because she is a Mojave Bee (spider X mojo) not a Mojave Bumble Bee (spider X mojo X pastel).

Very nice looking combo too.

Really? No pastel? The breeder told me she did XD.

Oh I see a made a name mistake in the OP. Breeder told me spider mojave pastel, but he kept using bee and bumble bee interchangeably.

my first thought was a lesser bee but still new to this so that was just my first thought

Don't think she's a lesser bee. She has mojave and spider for sure. Not so certain about the pastel, though there was a 50ish% chance of her getting pastel. Guess I'll just have to wait and see how she looks as she ages. Without the pastel she'll brown out.

Pastels brown out too.
