What is the percentage of getting killer bee ball python from bumble bee x pastel?

Also what else can I get from that clutch. And do I have better chances of getting a killer bee from bee x pastel than getting a black eye Lucy from fire x fireWhat is the percentage of getting killer bee ball python from bumble bee x pastel?
I'm not 100% on these percentages, but here goes:





Bumblebee ball python x Pastel ball python





25% pastels


25% bumblebees


12.5% normals


12.5% spiders


12.5% super pastels


12.5% killer bees





It looks like Varanid and I have the same percentages for the bumblebee to pastel pairing except for he's missing 1/8, which I have listed as normals.





I am, however, 100% sure of the following pairing:





Fire ball python x Fire ball python





50% Fires


25% Normals


25% Black eyed leucistics





Some of you reading this may wonder why normals are produced when breeding a fire to a fire, but that's how these genes work. For example, breeding a tiger reticulated python to another tiger retic will give 50% tigers, 25% super tigers, and 25% normals. I bet my life on this, although, as I mentioned, I am not 100% sure about the bumblebee to pastel percentages.





Now, to answer the other question, you have a better chance of getting a leucistic from a fire to fire breeding than you do getting a killer bee from a bumblebee to pastel breeding. Considering ball pythons average only 4 to 6 eggs per clutch, and since I have killer bees as a one in eight chance, you probably won't get one unless you have a big female who lays plenty of eggs. But with the fire to fire breeding, you have a one in four chance of getting a lucy. But keep in mind that these percentages are just approximations and are not guarantees.





By the way, you can create killer bees two different ways, from breeding a bumblebee to a pastel, or from breeding a super pastel to a spider. And thanks for the laugh Varanid! lolWhat is the percentage of getting killer bee ball python from bumble bee x pastel?
How hard is it to distinguish between the pastels and superpastels? Report Abuse

bumble bee x pastel ';should'; give you


1/8 killer bee


1/8 super pastels


1/8 spiders


2/8 bumblebees


2/8 pastels


if im wrong ill be corrected quick.





fire x fire ';should'; give you


2/4 fires


2/4 black eyed lucys





but dont ever forget our friend murphy and his law. he always has a hand to play when money and valuble animal breedings come together.





edit: holy s@#t! ';madsnakeman'; i just figuerd it out! it hasnt been murphy at all! its been my crapy math!!!!!!!! AAAARRRRRRRRRR!!!!!murph im sorry man!!!!!! (now every clutch will go bad for me this year, watch! lol!) this is why i never answer genetics questions. me+math=d,d,d.
Varanid, that only adds up to 7/8, but idk anything about breeding balls just wanted to correct that :p
