    Looks more like a tiger or banded(same name)
    Woma has the spider gold coloring on it.

    If it was sold as a tiger, it's probably a tiger. Womas have the same coloring as spiders, and the pattern would be sharper. Did you pay for a genetic tiger, or did the seller say it looked like a tiger ball, and charge normal pricing?
    What are these mojavas I keep hearing so much about?

    Why did you think she might be a Woma?

    Come here little guy. You're awfully cute and fluffy but unfortunately for you, you're made of meat

    I would think that the breeder would still provide paperwork. I purchased my Tiger from Michael Jolliff at a show, and he provided a genetics guarantee with my purchase.

    The best thing is to breed it and prove it out! Good luck!
