    quality spider??

    Hi all,
    So my husband and I are about to make some new purchases and so far I have only one female a pastel and one male norm... We really want a spider and a pin just wondering first what are your oppions on what makes a quality one and also should we get a female or male we plan to breed into the future I'm wondering is it better to have these as female or male and also what should we look for in one other than no noticeable wobble

    I would get a male spider to put with your female pastel.

    For spiders I like a really reduced pattern with very few black spots. High white sides, and a rich golden color.

    Here is my 2011 male spider





    Very young

    It's all pretty much personal preference but I like my spider, she is above average reduced pattern and high white. My pin, I like the odd colors.

    The flash kind of ruined her colors, but she has these cool gold tones.
