    For me, I will choose Albino BP bcoz of 'She'.
    Thn get another Spider BP a year later whn she almost ready for breeding.
    As wat I read, she will only ready for breeding is whn she more thn 2 years old.

    If we're just talking looks, albinos are gorgeous.

    They're just so clean and fresh looking. Some of the best looking snakes out there are albinos!

    If your picking by looks alone that should be a personal decision IMO.

    A female albino will only go up in value and a male spider will typically go down or stay the same in value.
    If you have any aspirations of breeding in a few years the best idea would be to get your females growing and worry about a male next year or when you find the right male you want to breed to her.
    If it's only a pet then your back to my first comment, get the one the makes you smile the biggest when you see it.

    Lol, Both! I can't wait to add a spider and an albino to my little group. You could always get both and send me the one you don't want. :P

    I think the fiscally responsible choice is to get the albion girl now, get a het albino spider later. Lots of males will breed at only 500-600 grams or so and spiders trend to be really good eaters and breeders. If you get a female now, you can focus on getting her up to size. A spider, even a het will lose value faster than a recessive homozygous.

    If you REALLY love the spider male, get him. If you just like him cuz he's het albino, you can wait until one that is special or was sired by an albino whose color/pattern/whatever will really fit well with your female.

    In the end, it's your choice! :D

    O wow I knew it that One day this will come...

    I dont Like either one... and I know i probably will be crucified for that...

    I HATE albino balls... If You need something white go with Bel or Ivory

    I'm not big fan of Spiders as well... Somehow because of wobble thing... but mainly because i think pinstripe outranks spiders in every way..

    Jut my 2 cents...

    I would say it depends on what you have and what you want from the animal. do you intend to breed or simply as a pet, and a show piece?

    personally i would go Albino either way. sure a spider is cool looking but it still is standardish colors. Albino is not.
