Going with the other suggestions would yield the greatest potential diversity in the first couple clutches that you produce. However, if you are not in the position to to spend that kind of money on a Bumblebee male you have other options.



If you are only concerned with producing Bumblebees it really won't matter which combination you decide to go with since the ratios will be the same whether you have a male spider and a female pastel or if it's the other way around.



However, if you'd like to also produce Super Pastels, I would go with a male Pastel and one female Pastel and one female Spider. This would help you maximize the potential and in the future when you raise up the babies you can hold back a Pastel or Super Pastel baby to possibly create more Super Pastels and/or Killer bees.



This would also be one of the "cheapest" ways to attain your goal.
