Hi,

He can't answer that - as you should know we do not allow sales discussions on the open forums.

I suggest you take any such questions to the PM system.

I was looking at your website and your available bp's and came across this...

I'm lost... Am I missing something? How are you getting spiders and pastels from butter/lesser and normals?

She explained it earlier in the thread.

Edit: Post #4 and #12 should help explain it.

Thanks for helping demjor19! Yes, that clutch actually had two sires in the end... mommy had been with a bumblebee only twice, and with a Butter the rest of the time, and apparently both males played part of the fathering of the clutch.. fun stuff!

Any updates

[mojavereptiles]

Whoops, meant to do an update!

Clutch 0610 is almost done hatching. 3 of the 4 have come out - all 4 are pastel! What are the odds? (from a normal x bumblebee).

Here are the results of Clutch 0510, a normal x bumblebee, with 2 bumblebees, 1 pastel, and 1 normal:

Bumblebee #1


Bumblebee #2


Pastel


Normal



And here is clutch 0610, 3 of the Pastels (will add 4th Pastel when he/she comes out!)

Pastel #1


Pastel #2


Pastel #3

In case you were interested, here were the overall results of my year's breeding:

22 eggs that went to term with 10 pastels, 2 spiders, 3 bumblebees, 4 normals, and 3 butters.

Unfortunately, 1 spider, 1 normal, and 1 pastel could not digest food properly - they refused eating on their own, and when assist fed, they did not digest the food, and died . I had a few trouble eaters that I had to assist feed a few times, but all are now eating on their own, including a butter that I had to assist for almost two months but has now taken 6 feedings IN A ROW on his own!

I need to post a new pic of my first bee - he is already almost 300 grams, and is beautiful! He is a true blue avid eater - he's the biggest of this year's hatchlings right now. Gotta love watching them grow up and get big and strong

Those are some awesome numbers, sorry for the losses. And wow! Something about all those pastels just catches my eye. Everything looks great!
