Confused

[eggman08]

I started a new thread instead of continuing on the axanthic killer bee because im confused about just the killer bee. Ok a bummble bee is a pastel x spider. everything i read say killer bee is a super pastel spider. So i just assumed it means a super pastel x spider but im wrong. And i am really confused. So if someone could explain how to get a killer bee i would appreciate it

Well super pastel x spider would work but most people just do pastel x bumblebee since that would have 2 pastel genes going on and will make the super.

No it won't

No it won't

You sure? Because that would still have 2 pastel genes together.

BUt the Super Pastel can only pass one of the pastel genes...

Hi,

No it wouldn't.

Only one half of the gene comes from each parent - so while a super pastel cannot pass on anything apart from a pastel gene it still can't pass on two copies of it.

Hence you get all pastels but no superpastels from breeding a superpastel to a normal.

Goto the Nerd site....they have a great lesson on genetics I wish we could get a copy to sticky on this site lol.

It's 2 pastel Genes so that means all the offspring will be pastel, not supers. You'd have to breed a Super Pastel to a Pastel to produce a clutch with Pastels & Super Pastels.

Hi,

You can definately get superpastels by breeding two pastels together.
