In the MSSM, LSP dark matter could arise from the decay of B-balls rather than from thermal relics, with a quite different dependence on the MSSM parameters and a natural correlation with the baryon asymmetry. We discuss the constraints imposed on the properties of B-balls and the MSSM spectrum by experimental constraints and show that B-balls cannot form from an Affleck-Dine condensate with 100% efficiency in the absence of LSP annihilations after they decay. For likely formation efficiencies the LSP and slepton masses are typically constrained to be light. The effects of LSP annihilations after the B-balls decay are discussed; for sufficiently small decay temperatures annihilations will play no role, opening up the possibility of experimentally testing the scenario.
