    Black Friday deal is here!!
    So here is the spider I got from bhb. Spiders will develop more white on their sides correct? Anyway I love this little girl and I'll post more pics when she calms down!

    Don't think they really develop any more than what they hatch with...

    Nice pickup :) They don't develop any more white sadly. They are either born with high white or they aren't. It's all a matter of personal preference though. Some people really love low white spiders :)

    Yes, as hatchlings the white can look a bit 'pink'. It will whiten up. You won't get any 'extra' as mentioned, but it will whiten up.

    In my experience, yes. The brown scales get darker and the white scales appear "cleaner."

    Very nice. Technically you could say that they get whiter as they age since they get bigger, the scales get bigger, and therefor the white takes up a larger area :P My spider's white didn't really clean up, for some reason it always had a yellow tone to it, it wasn't a crisp white color.

    As an adult

    As a baby, I think you can tell his white didn't really change
