I guess I was 1 of the lucky 1s that just got it imediately somehow lol

Isnt it nice to just get it Jen? Although this guide helped a ton when I read it on bp.net last year. Its fun to try to explain this stuff to someone who has no clue...fun AND frustrating. Thanks for posting this Tara ;)

Glad that I got that info too.  It seems to be helping a lot.  Got to give props to who wrote it though, JLC of Ball-Pythons.net   :10of10:

Another thing is I just learned how the double co-dom works. I was really confused on why say a bumble bee bred to a normal still produced a bumble bee. Well from what I could understand was that since bumble bees are double co-dom that they can still produce babies like them when bred to a normal. Can you elaborate more on this because I don't exactly know how it all work I just know it does.

breeding a bumble bee to a normal is the same as breeding a pastel to a spider... half the babies will be spider, half will be pastel... if you're lucky, one or two will be both. Theoretically if there was 4 eggs, you'd have one pastel, one spider, one bumble bee and one normal.

though that'll usually vary... it's a game of odds... you could very well not get any bumble bees.
