    Identifying Clown Spiders
    Hit some pretty good odds on this clutch.

    I don't have a ton of experience with the spider gene though and am trying to determine what genes each snake has. Especially when it could be spider mixed with clown.

    Here was the pairing in a genetic wizard. 1/8 chance of each.

    So far I'm seeing the following for sure, with the questionable genes in ()... Thoughts?

    1. Pastel het Clown
    2. Bumblebee het Clown (+Clown?)
    3. Bumblebee het Clown (+Clown?)
    4. Pastel Clown
    5. Pastel Clown (+Spider)
    6. Pastel Clown
    7. Black Pewter Clown (+Spider)

    2 & 3. Bumblebee Clown looks so close to the regular Bee in the two examples. Looking at further examples doesn't help, but the Bumblebee Clowns are usually more reduced and a more distinct pattern down the dorsal. Makes me think these are probably just Bees.

    5. This one is more reduced than the others, but spider isn't always obvious when clown is present. +spider perhaps?

    7. Looks more like the example of the Black Pewter Bee Clown below, so I'm thinking +spider for sure.

    Thank in advance for any input. =)

    I made this graphic from example of each possible combination for reference.

    I got some good feedback form a trusted source. Looks like there is no spider in the questionable morphs except for the #7.
