    Re: Lets talk lesser and butters
    I am sure they are the same morph. I think it's just individual variation that makes people think they're different morphs. Lets say you have a 'butter' and a 'lesser' that look as different as they come, and two spiders, one busy with low white sides and lots of black specking, the other reduced, high white and clean. The spiders are gonna look far more different from one another than the lesser and butter will.

    I feel like if anybody had a butter x lesser clutch, they might think that they can tell the butter and lesser siblings apart, but in my opinion they're just grouping them according to false preconceived notions about butters and lessers that they've been told by other people. If people continue to breed what they think are butters to more 'butters' and what they think are lessers to other 'lessers', our idea of what each morph is supposed to look like is going to start emerging more and more, so they might start looking more distinctive farther down the line, but it will be due to OUR selective breeding, not due to their genetics being different.

    Ok I'll play, sorry if someone guessed this and I missed it already:

    I rather think that butters and lessers are just different lines of the same morph.

    Lol, this argument is going to continue untill a geneticist pokes his head in and finds out :) Its funny how everyone says nice "lesser" to that pic.... It just proves more to me they could be the same morph because my nice "butter" looks almost indentical...

    I personally can't tell the difference until you ask the breeder the price. $500 says Lesser and more than $500 says Butter.. lol

    Here's my little Butter. Traded for him as a Butter. Either way I love him to death..

    Yes, I own both of them. He was was produced from a normal female bred to a lesser male. :)
