Re: Spider or Pinstripe?
I dunno. To me, pins and pin combos are just dirty, busy, messy. I don't care for the pattern at all.

I don't like most pin combos, but they all magically become better when ghost is added. For the most part, I prefer spiders.
Though my ghost pin is going to my fire honeybee one day, so ghost fire spinners may become my favorite...

...I really need updated photos of Hiverre. She's so much brighter yellow now that's she's about three times the size in that photo.

Re: Spider or Pinstripe?
I love pinstripes. My second BP was a pinstripe and she looks nicer every day.
I am also considering getting a spider combo in the next few month but I am concerned about the wobble issue.

Not mine. But I'll be jealous with you.

Pinstripe is OK, but I like the spider a lot better. It just has so much more potential at least in my opinion. Both of my boys have a little of the wobble but neither are any worse for the wear. :)

I haven't really found a liking for pinstripes. Now I always see another I want lol

Re: Spider or Pinstripe?
While I love the spider gene I am a much bigger fan of the pinstripe.

After reading this post again, it would appear that the OP's question wasn't a 'spider vs pin' question, but a 'pick your favorite'.
The hard part for me is that there's another question embedded in there, since he said "put into a combo, by itself, whatever."
Put into a combo? Spider, all day. Wobble can be an issue, but the spider gene changes so much about other mutations that it's a must-have for me.
By itself? I really love piebalds. A close second is the BEL. Both have the "wow" factor that even my snake-hating mother in law can appreciate.
But since this became a spider vs pin discussion: by itself, pinstripe. In combos, spider.
Edit: this is what I get for playing on Tapatalk. I see the discussion thread title again AFTER I've replied...And it's spider vs pin. Don't I feel dumb...

I have a spider and a bumblebee and I wouldn't change them for the world! The spider seems to have a very slight head nod in feeding (although this may be because I sort of bounce the mouse gently in front of him) and my bee is brilliant! He eats like a machine and is just a lovely animal to have.
I wouldn't discount a pin and was considering one for the future (in the next year or few years) but I am definitely team spider/spider combo at the moment :)
