    Jeez, I can tell just by looking at how tiny he is in your hand that he's not 100g. I think the boy I brought home from the expo last year was bigger at 69g, and he was barely thicker than my thumb. Seller lied through his teeth there.

    Did the guy you buy him from ever mention the pairing that produced him? I'm very very inclined to believe there's enchi in there, his color and pattern are just too clean and light and kinda off for a regular lesser spider, he's also very banded especially towards his tail. In fact I would venture to say I'm certain he has enchi in him, as that's actually the first gene that stood out to me when I checked out this thread in the first place, to me it seems very obvious. Idk, maybe others will have a different opinion.

    Look up Butter Enchi Spider on WOBPs. The 6th photo by Markus Jayne BP's looks identical to yours.

    Could be that this guy is just as clueless with ID'ing morphs as he is with how to care for his animals

    I found out after my purchase the guy guy I bought them from was a wholesaler so anything is possible

    And the thing that drew me to him was the thick pattern on his back and the banding on his side

    Well then eating troubles aside, you may have gotten a three gene animal for the price of two.

    !!!!!!!!!!!!!HE ATE!!!!!!!!!!!!
    I finally found some fuzzys but I had to order them and drive 2 hour round trip so I got 2 fuzzys and 2 pinkys just to see if ether would entice him he still shyed away when offered them so I put one of each in his tub and left him alone I came back just before bed time and he was out of his hide and I couldn't see the mice so I decided to stick the other 2 in there. This morning I looked in his tub and he was coiled up were the mice were last night so I moved his hides,water bowl and even him and no mice to be found. they were the smallest fuzzys I've ever seen but he ate all 4 so im happy
