    Thanks for all the nice comments everyone! Zombie, the color on your Spider does look very similar. Was your Spider that produced it low or high white? My Spider male is very high white, and this is the first time I've gotten low white hatchlings from him. So I am thinking that has something to do with mom.

    Here's a pic of mom as a hatchling, when we got her back in 07. She was actually a birthday gift I bought for my younger brother (we own our collection jointly now). So he's definitely excited...it's nice to know we have some potential here. This female has taken for ever to grow up. She just kept getting longer and longer...so even when she hit typical breeding weight she was just long and thin. This was the first year she was bulky enough to breed. I need to take a new pic, but here is the old pic of mom, sorry it's small:

    I was thinking, I really want to pick up an Orange Dream male this year or next year depending on how the finances work out...do you guys/gals think an Orange Dream would be a good match for Spider female when she grows up?

    ODs are definitely a good match for spiders! DreamBees are super nice!

    Oh, very unusual. She's very pretty.
    She's a keeper for sure.
