wouldn't it be wiser and cheaper to get a male so i could breed him to multiple bees for better chances of my 6.25% axanthic killer? and what is the difference if anyone knows between an axanthic killer, and a zebra bee?

Also I have thought about rack cost for hatchings and subs but its at least 2 years down the road as I wont even be able to get my Pastel Axanthic til at least tax time and I'm trying to hold of til the first month of hatching season BUT thats gonna be tough for me with money in hand.
Here is the thought -
If you get a MALE pastel axanthic and a female bee, then the babies you get from that, which will be het axanthic, would have to be female, and then you would have to wait 2-3 more years before you could breed em back to dad and have your chance at axanthic bee (zebra bee, god i hate that term) or killer bee axanthic.


Like I said, axanthic bee (zebra) is pastel spider axanthic and killer bee axanthic is super pastel spider axanthic.


Hope that helps.
