Would you do this trade

male breeder bee for a yellowbelly orange ghost male.

I couldn't say. I never do trades, in my mind, you just sell the snake and buy what you want with that money. Never got the idea of a trade unless it's a very uncommon morph for another uncommon morph in which buying one would be very hard.

Do what you feel good with doing.

That's tough! I think a big part of the future of our hobby will be breeders/hobbyists making trades like this.
Are you through with your bee? Do you have females ready for the new male?
Tough!!!

I love bees so I would keep it! Go with which one you will enjoy more!

The bumble bee is a better match for the animals listed under your signature. Unless you have other females that are ghost (or het for ghost) I would use the bee to produce animals that have comparatively immediate financial value rather than getting the ghost yellow belly and entering into longer term projects.

That being said, I would probably do it. There are a lot of bumble bees out there. Ghost Yellow Belly's are much less common. Producing something unique like pastel yellow belly's that are het for ghost will be very desirable animals to your customers.

It would depend on your breeding program. Does the YB fit better into what you're wanting to breed? If you're not breeding and just looking for a pet, then the choice is purely personal.

Best advice, IMO.
