Normals that are 100% het albino (as are all the normal looking spiders) are also possible from a spider het albino x albino pairing. That's the least desirable result, though.

Thats a Beautiful pairing Colin! You know exactly what everything is, no guessing on those genes.
That picture makes me want to make spider albinos asap.... very inspiring!!
Thanks for sharing

Re: Albino Spiders
Also, do you guys know what the difference would be if you bred the spider to a high contrast rather then a regular albio? Are high contrasts just selectively bred or is there somthing genetic about them?
Thanks,

I don't think high contrasts are different? Individuals vary. I'm sure you can get a low contrast and a high contrast in the same clutch. Just like getting a spider with a couple spots and a spider that's extremely reduced, or a nice bright pastel and a so-so pastel. I could be wrong though.

I am pretty sure that it is just selective breeding but i am just making sure...
