    Bumble bee questions

    Hi Guys,
    Do bumble bees brown out as they age? Do they have a head shake like a spider or is that diluted because or the pastel outcross? This years baby eating well, female, 600$. Good price?
    Thanks,
    Mike

    They can, just like with pastels there are low and high grade bees.
    Do they have a head shake like a spider
    Wobble/Spinning does affect spiders and spider combos.

    Re: Bumble bee questions

    Any Bee combo can have the wobbles but sometimes its not noticable at all and other times it can be bad. I would ask if it has any noticable wobbles or if it rolls excessivly when coiling around its food. The price seem like what they have been going for. Have you seen a pic? The brighter it is as a baby, the more it will retain its color. If it has any orangy color to it, it may darken as it gets older. Usually the oranges in pastel combos is what makes it get darker or brown out.

    You're questions have been answered already. I'd say $600 is fair, that's about the going price.
