Lemon Pastel Female

dean38 Nov 28, 2007 08:11 PM

Thought I'd share a shot of this girl post shed. She has the brightest yellow I'v seen on a lemon pastel. She makes all her siblings look dull. She does not look even close to any of her clutch mates. she has a really reduced pattern down toward her tail. I tried to capture her color as best as I could....still not quite as good as in person. She started out real slow having to be assist fed about 5 times. Now she eats like a beast and she's growing nicely. Let me know what you think.

Thanks for looking

Wow! She is bright!!! Do you have pics of her parents?

Thanks for the replies. Here is a shot of the parents. The mother has all the markers of a granite. (unproven)

Father Lemon Pastel

Mother coiled on the clutch this girl came from. 6 eggs under her.

Nice, maybe there's something special going on with that female. You'll have to keep us posted on the project...I know I would love to have a pasel like that girl! Imagine the bees she'd make.

Ya, I'm hoping there is something genetic with the mother. I am definitly going to make some bees with her.

She's very nice! Her coloration reminds me a lot of my lemon male:

Nice looking Lemon....like to see the supers if they were bred together.

I agree, they would probably make some nice supers. I only hope that he'll give me some females as nice as yours this year!
