Hi,
I am fairly new to balls too but the pattern the black spider webbing that is should be much lighter more like a grey then a black. Do you have a pic? V/R Paige

Here's a link to NERD's gallery of KillerBees.

In addition to the lighter black in the pattern there are the 'dots' making up the head pattern of a KillerBee.

Best of Luck and Congratulations!

How can someone make a morph of that caliber and that obvious and NOT know what they look like?.....just asking....maybe im a little jealous....idk.

alemoz Nov 10, 2010 11:58 AM

well as i said before i am quite new of balls....
then...my goal was to produce a killer bee but i havent seen any in my life except for some pictures.
i have bred a bumble bee and a pastel. i produced some animals and i would like to understand if i got a very nice bumble bee (for my eye) or i got a killerbee...
that is the reason...i am sorry i am not so confident that i was obliged to ask here....but from somewhere i need to start.... to become as good as you
best wishes
