thinking about getting a spider

ok so i was offered a spider for 150 today, just wondering if its worth it and what kind of morphs i can combine it with. heres the only pic i have so far and the pic is 2 months old, il post new ones tomorrow when i get them.

It's a pretty spider and is about the going rate for a spider male. If you like him - get him!

If that spider does not have bad wobbles, $150 would be an excellent price!

You can breed him to a nice pastel for a chance at a nice bumblebee. Spider combos are pretty cool so it definitely is a "great to have" snake for any project.

Thats actually a very pretty spider.

i thought it was a pretty nice spider too. il have more recent pics up tomorrow for a better look at how he currently looks. no wobbles i am told. i am really interested in what kind of well known, cool morphs could i get besides a bumblebee? i already know about that one and i will be pairing him with a female pastel that my brother has next year or so to try and get me a pastel as well as a bumblebee. i havent yet bread any snakes but next year i will be giving it my first go at it :) hopefully all goes well.

Well considering how fast prices are dropping for BP Morphs these days, i wouldn't try breeding to make any money, but breed because you want to and you KNOW that you could adopt them out or sell them.

Spiders are great to have even if you don't breed, they are beautiful, but since they are so common, i would look all over until you find the one with the perfect head/ pattern/ amount of white that you can find. It took me about a month to find my perfect spider (which i ended up selling :mad::mad:).

It tis a pretty one and would be a good choice overall if it's what you like in a Spider.

That is one nice looking spider. If you're truly satisfied, go for it. But, if you wanna wait and see if you can find what you really like in a spider, I would suggest waiting and try to see when the next reptile expo is that is in your area. Definitely a variety at the expos and it's a great place to look for what you really want, and to negotiate prices as well.

Some cool morphs you can breed spider to would be pastel which gets you bumble bees, spider to pinstripe which gets you spinners, spider to mojave which gets you mojo bees (not sure if that's what it's called but for the time being let's settle it at that), spider to cinny for cinnabees which look real nice, but those are just only a few to name out of the many different spider combos. Choose which ever you like best, look up some spider combos and see which ones you're interested in.

I personally think spider is my favorite morph which means I LOVE the combos. Hopefully you'll make the right decision for what's ever best for you, good luck!

I think it's a beautiful little spider, and not a bad price at all! Sheesh, prices have dropped considerably since I bought mine... paid $240 just one year ago, and that was a decent price at the time. :cool:

As for combos, there are endless possibilities with the spider, since it's a co-dominant morph... some of the more popular ones include bumblebee, humblebee (ghost x pastel x spider), killer bee (super pastel x spider), queen bee (pastel x lesser x spider), spinner (spider x pinstripe), albino spider, and sooooo many more. We all have different opinions on what's the coolest, so future pairings would be whatever YOU like best. ;)

this is the one that i think i am going to get, he is 70 grams

They are adorable, hope you pick whichever one you like best! They both look great, I like that white on the sides.
