    To produce Killer Bee's, which are Super Pastel Spiders...

    Bumblebee x Pastel as stated above, or Bumblebee x Bumblebee...there are others that involve using the Killer Bee in the breeding, which seems pointless if that is what you are trying to produce.

    Re: Confused

    AS everyone else has explained and to make it easier is that when you breed a super pastel to normal you get all pastels and no supers. So when a spiders bred to super all would express just pastel not super and then some would be spider as well. So pastel is the heterozygous form of the homozygous super pastel and both parents have to be the heterozygous form to produce the homozygous super. Hope this helps a little.

    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.
