bee x lesser

ryned04 Dec 09, 2008 03:47 AM

OK, so i really want to pick up a lesser to eventually breed to my bumblebee and i'm not sure if i'm reading the punnett square correctly. Is there a chance i would produce both lesser bees and queen bees? I know you guys are burned out on genetics questions, but i would greatly appreciate the help. thanx in advance.

Yes Bees, lesser bees, queen bees, spiders, pastels, pastel lessers, lessers, and of course normals

Hope that helps.

Here's the percentages:

12.5% Pastel Lesser Spider (Queen bee)
12.5% Pastel Lesser
12.5% Spider Lesser
12.5% Pastel Spider (Bee)
12.5% Spider
12.5% Pastel
12.5% Lesser
12.5% Normal

Another way to say this is you have a 1 in 8 chance in hitting any of the above.

Best wishes. Nice potential combos!
