I've only got one breeder sized female right now and would like to decide which of my spider males I should breed to her. Both have been checked over by my vet and are healthy.
Thor (pic #1)
Rescued from bad home, only 620g at 3 years old, thick bodied but small
originally came from NC reptiles, lineage unknown
higher white, dorsal striping
Virgin
Moose (pic#2)
Bought from small hobby breeder, 1350g @ 3 years old.
Lineage somewhat known, paternal line from several small Oregon breeders, 7 generation spider/normal
lower white, pattern has velvety/smooth appearance
Proven breeder. This boy made me 7 good eggs from the same girl I will be breeding this year, except ALL of his babies were normals!
What do you guys/gals think? Should I go with my virgin male or my proven breeder male who only gave me normals last time? All opinions welcome.
Here are the pictures that best show their in-person looks

Moose
