HoneyBee?

    HoneyBee?
    I put this on Layaway because I really wanted to prove it out. It was sold as a Spider but I wanted to take the chances that this was an GhostxSpider >>> HoneyBee. The color really doesn't look great in photo because I took this photo with my phone. The snake has Yellow/Gold blotching all around belly area. The BP also has the bright honey color to it. The Spider lines are very faint. Light Black/Brown. I'm just getting into BP's so I don't know a lot about them right now. So any input would be awesome! Thanks Guys!

    Hmm the coloring doesn't look quite right to be a honeybee to my eyeballs but it certainly doesn't look right to be a regular spider either. So it may just be, like you said, poor coloring from your camera (sometimes its so hard to capture accurate color with our cameras, esp our phones!) But the "black" doesn't look "black" to me or even near dark brown enough to be a regular spider. So I would lean on the side of spider ghost....maybe it's a spider ghost just not spider orange ghost? I'm not super experienced on ghosts...but I do know there can be a different effect with some morphs (like mimoas and the glows) when a regular hypo is used opposed to an orange ghost.

    So if I had to vote, I vote honeybee!......and if I had to give you breeding advice I would say breed it to a ghost....so that way if for some reason it's not, at least you get 100% offspring. GL!

    Thanks for the input tikigator ; Yeah there really is not black at all. It's more of a brown/light brown on spider lines. So I'm hoping to prove it out as a HoneyBee! I'm definitely keep an eye out for a deal on a female ghost or Het.

    I dont see a honeybee. Looks like a single gene spider

    With the lines being light brown and the honey color you think single gene spider? I just have never seen a single gene spider with these colors. All spiders I've seen have black lines

    So I found this photo. The larger snake of the three is the HoneyBee: The snake I put on Layaway looks exactly like the snake in photo. I hope this helps! P.S. as I said the phone camera really didn't do justice especially in a dark room. I will try and get more photos up later.

    Ive seen Spiders that have the same coloring as this one. Just like all Morphs, they vary. No harm in breeding to a visual ghost tho just for kicks!

    Appreciate your input. I will get more photo's later. I have a hard time seeing a single gene with the colors this thing has. The camera made it look dark. I also shot this through glass.

    Looks spider to me too. Spiders, as with any morph, can have a variety of looks.

    I understand, just have not seen a single gene with such a bright yellow contrast. I'll get some more pics today.
