    Grasping at straws
    So a year ago I picked up 2 bps from Craigslist. One normal and one “bumblebee”. We’ll never could put a pick of mine next to a bee and say 100% that is what I have. Today I’m scrolling through MM and find this snake that is almost a spitting image of mine. So it got me to thinking (which has gotten me no where before).
    Mine:

    Now the Craigslist seller was not the breeder and the price for the pair was $60 so I’m not complaining there. I will be going to the local expo this weekend to have sexes confirmed for them and asking the breeder that I bought my banana from his opinion but just thought I’d check the brain trust here.

    Do I have a potential spider calico?

    Thanks Cody.

    You have a Spider not a Spider Calico so what's the difference you might ask? It's about color, dorsal pattern and last but not least head pattern.

    Thanks Deborah. Knew it was a long shot. Hoping that my ability to pop worked and both the spider and normal are females otherwise my newest addition may have been a bit hasty.
    Male banana super pastel.

    Sorry poor lighting and cell phone are not conducive to good pics. Some day I’ll get my photo booth setup again.

    Popping adult males is not nearly as easy as in babies so I would also probe before doing any pairing. That's a nice addition either way!

    Thanks. The male banana is a 2018. The spider and normal I got last year were 2017 hatches that I popped then. I am having them probed today to verify my original conclusions.
