    Opinions please: which male to breed?
    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

    Haha, I was thinking about that too, but then I wouldn't know which one was the father! I guess it wouldn't matter, just personal preference.
