    If you just want a lesser bee just save some cash and get a spider instead of a bumble bee

    Re: lesser bee

    now... a bumble bee is pastel spider, it would give you a chance at producing a pastel, lesser, spider (queen bee ithink)... The pastel isnt going to improve your chances of a lesser bee, but give you something more.... The beex lesser clutch would deffinatly produce a wider variety of animals.

    so with a bee x butter or lesser u could potentially produce- Pastel, spider, lesser/butter, lesserbee, queenbee

    Is that correct I mean thats a long shot to produce a lesser or queenbee but just wanna see if im correct. havent got my books yet LOL trying to fully understand genetics is very entertaining. . . seems to be a never ending process similar to my college carrier HAHA jk

    I know that a bumblebee x lesser can produce a queen bee. That is my breeding goal. Now I just have to find the snakes and convince my parents to let me get 2 more. lol

    When people use the term "lesser bee", do they mean
    1) lesser spider?
    or
    2) lesser spider pastel?

    I only use it to describe lesser spider pastel.

    I disapprove of all the individual names given to combo morphs for this very reason of confusion.

    Re: lesser bee

    If you breed a bumblebee to a lesser you can produce pastels, spiders, lessers, bumblebees, lesser pastels, lesser bees, and queen bees! way more choices than just a spider x lesser

    Your best way to produce a lesser/butter bee would be to get a super lesser aka a bel and breed it to a spider. With the bel you will get no normals in a clutch. Everything baby will be at least a lesser. Anything that doesn't have the spider gene in it will be a lesser and anything that does have the spider gene in it will be a lesser bee. Hope this makes sence and helps.
