    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

That one wasn't expected

So I loaned my banana bumblebee male to a buddy so he can breed it to some of his females while I await my military contract to expire and I return home. These are the results from the first clutch, banana bumblebee x normal. The little gal on the right, quite the mystery. I'm either thinking the male has something more, or the female retained sperm. I'm leaning more toward retained sperm. Unless more of those pop out in the next three clutches on the ground.

Not sure. My buddy says he didn't keep breeding records for female that didn't lay last season. Not a huge deal to me, but would be nice if mine ended up have a butter/lesser gene in it as well!
 
A banana queenbee? I don't think it's likely being I don't think the guy I purchased him from has produced them yet. It would probably be too difficult to identify if he was anyway. Have to wait another month and a half or so to find out what's in the other clutches. I'm just guessing it's retained sperm.
