    I doubt the three people telling you it looks like a leopard are actually breeding leopard spiders and know what they look like...

    That isn't a leopard spider. Just wait.. You'll get someone here who is actually breeding and selling those who will verify that. They look nothing like that. That looks like a regular ol spider.

    And yes.. There is about a 2.5Kprice difference..

    Could they have meant the parents were a spider and a leopard het hypo? That's a spider for sure in my eyes!

    Like i said, its not a leopard spider and the $150 you paid should tell you that.

    Leopard spiders stick out like sore thumbs when they hatch

    I'll believe that when Joe comes here and verifies that he said that. I've seen his Leo spiders..

    I have produced Leopard Spiders and the one thing I can say is that they have no white or almost no white. The Black is Super Black and they have a certain look (in person). I can say the spider pictured looks low white... is it a Leopard?? Well if there was a Leopard from the same clutch it could be..... or could not be..... There is only one way to find out, which was my answer to John's question. Breed it out and you will know what you have.... Here is a picture of some of my Leopard Spider.

    Thanks for replying Joe yeah the pattern just looks nothing like yours soo thats why i was soo iffy but the black on its head is VERY dark with low white and there was a leopard in the clutch soo i guess the plan is too breed it and see what comes out
