I have a nice female pastel that am going to breed in a few months or so.Which one would you pick from the bunch and why(just curious)from a spider,ghost,pastel.

1-spider= bumblebee,spider,pastel,normal
2-pastel= super pastel,pastel,normal
3-ghost= het ghost,pastel het ghost

What do you want to do? I like Bees myself.

Personaly, if you've got the the Spider and the Pastel males already, I would breed them both to the Pastel female. That way you've got a shot at both the Bee and the Super Pastel. Good luck.

I agree. Run both co-dom males through the pastel female. Do not, however, also pair with a ghost at the same time since ghost is recessive (you wouldn't be able to tell if your hatchlings were het ghosts or you just had terrible luck and all normals).

Since i don;t have either or super or bee i am going to hook her up with both and see who can give me either...I think both are great and they are snakes i can work with later to produce either killer bees or use the super to improve other morphs.....thanks for the replys...

If she has got some nice color and not a lot of brown I'd go with the two co-doms - but if she has browned out - then go with the hypo - the hypo seems to clean up ugly pastel pretty good.

Tosha makes a good point, as usual.

Has anyone kept track as to whether a browned out pastel produces bees that are less clear/yellow/hot at birth and if they brown out any differently than other bees produced from a pastel that hasn't browned out as much when bred?

It depends on your 3 and 5 year plan on what you want yo produce then. Id go for the pastel to hopefully produce super females...just my 2 cents
