    Question Orange ghost questions?

    1.) Are orange ghosts brightly colored orange as babies or just lightly (have a ghostly appearance of being orange)?
    2.) Do they get brighter orange as they get older or duller?
    3.) How can you insure you get a nice colored orange ghost baby by looking at them (considering your already getting them from a good breeder, what makes a good looking orange ghost baby)?
    5.) So basically when an orange ghost is older do they get really orange or do they just have a ghostly appearance of being orange?

    I am asking these questions because I have seen some Honeybees (spider x orange ghost) that were amazingly colored orange but when I look at the babies it looks like the the normal color is slightly tinged orange (ghostly) and not as nice as the adults (hence the question do they get darker as they get older).

    Anything else you can add to help me understand the orange ghost morph would be greatly appreciated and thank you in advance to anyone who trys to help me!!!

    Re: Orange ghost questions?

    Part of the reason for the amazing color is the spider. Orange ghosts tend to have a frosted over look (due to the ghost part). The other reason for the babies not looking so bright might be due to the other end of breeding. IF the Honeybee was bred with a darker animal....this would result in a darker baby in some cases.
