That would be interesting to see, wounder if it will be all bees or spiders At the rate he is going there shouldnt be any pastels at all, right?

It would be all bees, no spiders or pastels if it's with a super pastel.

actually its 50% pastel and 50% bees
but if he is that dominant then it should be all bees unless for some FREAK reason he is dominant enough to over run the pastel and get a spider thrown.
That would be very interesting to see

Aahh okay, I get ya. I was thinking the odds assuming the spider was a homozygous spider, not a regular spider.

You are correct that if it is indeed a homozygous spider, bred to a "super" (homozygous) pastel, you should get ALL bees. However, since the female can only throw a pastel gene -- not a normal gene on that locus -- I can't really see how you could possibly get a simple spider.

... Of course, weird things seem to like to happen with these ball python guys -- guess I shouldn't be too shocked if it produces something that shouldn't theoretically be possible
