    Red sided spider?
    Is it normal for aspider to have red or reddish brown on its sides? All the spiders Ive seen have white freckling or yellow of some sort. I came across these 2 that have red sides from boa barn. Could this be a different line of spiders or is it a natural occuring "fluke". Could it possibly be genetic as well? I think they look REALLY sweet.

    I think they're just wee babies is all. Hatchlings often have some vivid coloring that they outgrow very quickly. I'd be willing to bet that within a shed or two, those spiders will look exactly as you'd expect them to.

    For it to be a new line, it would have to be proven out first. Great looking spiders though. :)

    That might be preshed pictures right after they hatch, i know pastels look ten times better before they first shed. I love the color though, although io would think it would turn orange or gold after a shed.
