First 2010 hatchlings!

Our first clutch of the year hatched out this past weekend. It was a Spider to Normal pairing. We ended up getting 3.2 Spiders and 2.1 Normals. Not bad morph ratio, but, the sex could have been better. Oh well, it could have been worse I guess. Enough whinning, here are the pics...

The hold backs. These are probably the best looking Spiders in the group and they just happen to be what I'm looking for, FEMALES!

I think mom had something to do with the reduction in pattern, here is a pic of her at the beginning of her ovulation...

Congrats! Beautiful spiders, and love those holdbacks.

Congrats on hatching out all the beautiful spiders :gj:

I have to say all those spiders are nice :D

I would of kept all the females too :rolleyes:

Congrats! I agree, the holdback girl on the right is a smoker!

Very nice congrats :gj:

Awesome spiders! If I were in the market for one, those two females would be exactly what I would look for!

Very nice! Congrates! You must be very happy. Can't wait to go through that!

Yeah it's pretty cool. I'm very pleased with the results.

congrats on the babies, they're all really nice, my favorite is the holdback on the left.

This is the perfect thread showing the results of selective breeding. Wether done on purpose, or because that was the only female you had, very good choice for the female. The male is not a "smoker", but he is not bad lookin'. I personally, prefer a spider with no "spots" in the brown/yellow pattern. Like I said before, dad is nice, but good choice on the female. Can't wait to see those 2 girls at a year old. They will be nice.

Thnaks for the compliments. It was definatley selective breeding. I figured the females pattern would play out nicely with the Spiders pattern. I have another girl that that was bred to the same sire which I also think will throw some nice offspring. I'm hoping this girls circles show up some where in the pattern. It's a long shot hoping for the circles to carry through, but, the light color wouldn't look bad either. Here is a pic of her Ovulating...
