    Help! Is there Enchi in this Coral glow spider?
    Hi guys

    I have been offered a Coral glow spider poss enchi male for a great price. The breeder says the sire is a Coral glow spider enchi and believes enchi to be in the animal I am interested in. In the pic are him and his brother who both are believed to carry Enchi. What does everyone reckon?

    With over a 100 views and no comment, I take it people are just as baffled as me.

    If that is what the breeder says to you then is he reputable? Do you trust him. Besides telling you that did he provide proof of his claims. Pictures? Did he visibly show you the parents? You can ask for proof as the buyer.

    The one on the left appears to have Enchi while the one on the right is probably just spider cg. It might be an Enchi as well, the pattern is a little wonky. Certainly, if it is enchi as well, it isn't as good a quality as the one on the left.

    The breeder is one of the most well known in South Africa. He has sold to me as possible enchi but cant guarantee, so has therefore given it too me at what you would expect for a cg spider. He just said he believes there to be enchi in them. I just wanted to see what people thought. Interesting how one person has told me the right carries enchi and now Asherah reckons the other. I personally feel that the orange specs on the white of both bodes positively that there is enchi in them.

    Oh, ok if it was sold as a possible enchi then I would think you may have to prove that out through breeding. However , if he is a top breeder I would think his word is reliable. I am just perplexed as to why he doesn't have some kind of proof to back up the possibility of the animal having enchi. You know, through breeding records? :)

    Sorry if never mentioned. The sire is a cg spider enchi, so my feeling is if the sire is that and he thinks there is enchi in them, then there probably is. He is a very well respected breeder over here and I think he might just be trying to play it safe as if he sold it with enchi in and it never had then reputation would suffer.

    Hey if you trust the guy prove it out! :-) like I said, it's possible for the one on the right. Heck it could just be the angle on tge picture. They are both lovely snakes. I just think the one on the left is a stronger expression, therefore a better guess.
