    Mystic Bee?

    I need opinions! My mystic/ bumblebee eggs are hatching.... what do you think? Is this a mystic pastel? Or a mystic bee? It is pretty stripy toward the tail... anyone see spider here?

    ....and the clutch-mates.... are these just mystic? Or are they mystic pastels? I have never seen baby mystics before, these sure seem bright and white sided....

    The first picture link looks like a nice pastel, not pastel mystic.

    The 2nd picture link appears to show 2 mystics .

    Not looking like mystic bees or mystic pastels to me. I see a pastel in the first picture, and an incredible looking pastel at that, and mystics in the second.

    Looks like a Mystic Pastel. Those flames just aren't right for a normal Pastel if you ask me.

    More pics!

    Hi everyone! Thank you for the comments! Was out for the weekend, but I am back with more pictures! The last one to hatch from this clutch was a bumblebee, but what a bee! Have a look at these pictures and tell me what you think... Just a great bee? Or is this a mystic bee? Do normal bees have markings like this? And how about purplish heads like a super pastel?

    Here's a picture of the pastel (mystic?) and a mystic comparing heads:

    and here's one comparing one of the mystics, the pastel (mystic?) and the (mystic?) bee

    Thanks for all the input!

    That first pastel looks like a clean blonde pastel to me, thay would explain the high white flames and the peach coloring
