im lost need help choosing a morph to purchase from the expo
i have a butter (m) spider 66%poss het hypo(m) pastel (f) normal(f)
i love fires ,ghost , and buttters and lessers .....but i have no idea which one to get :( if you could please give me your opinions on what would mix well with what i have now and send my breeding group in the right direction .......im only in the 350-400 price range and need to figure something out before daytonas breeders expo
thanks
Re: im lost need help choosing a morph to purchase from the expo
I would get a female butter or lesser. Then you could potentially make leucys as well as butter or lesser bees. They are definitely within your price range. If you can find one that is het hypo that's a bonus....but you will probably pay more for it.

Re: im lost need help choosing a morph to purchase from the expo
I would get a female mojave, if I were you. I'm rather fond of mojo combos. ;)
Re: im lost need help choosing a morph to purchase from the expo
i was looking at a awesome mojave female but i only like the ones that hold there grey and blacks into adult hood and dont brown out i have only seen a few that look this way .....
Re: im lost need help choosing a morph to purchase from the expo
I would go ghost, you can prove out your spider, plus everything looks better with ghost in it.
Re: im lost need help choosing a morph to purchase from the expo
Personally, I'd go with lesser, just because I adore lessers...
Re: im lost need help choosing a morph to purchase from the expo
do you think the chances are high proving him out with him being 66%...and yea lessers and butters hold a special place in my heart lol ......but i dont want to over do it with to many my butter male is awesome looking

umm... don't your answer your own question lol? you have a 66% chance of it being het, thats your chances...
personally I'd try to prove out the het hypo, hypo female shouldn't run you too much money. spend a little more out of your range and you could get a pastel hypo.

Are you sure you're talking above a mojave? I dont think i've ever seen a mojave with grey and black. Are you referring to an axanthic?
Re: im lost need help choosing a morph to purchase from the expo
no i was talking about Mojaves you know the deep grey and browns that almost look like black .......most i see don't hold that color not saying that all dont but if i purchased one i would want it to look awesome as a adult ......so im guessing its out of the orange ghost and lesser or butter femalw

I'll second the vote above. I think a Pastel Hypo female would compliment your small group very nicely, and it would only be a bit more than your budget. Heck, it's Daytona. You might even be able to haggle one for your already allocated funds. Also, this way, even if your Spider male doesn't prove, the babies will all still be 100% Het Hypo at the minimum.
Re: im lost need help choosing a morph to purchase from the expo
That sounds good I will look for a ghost or pastel ghost female......this will be my first time going to daytona breeders expo, I keep hearing that there are great deals there.....but if he proves out with a pastel ghost that would be a super awesome clutch
Re: im lost need help choosing a morph to purchase from the expo
I'd get a lesser and with the little extra money you should have I would grab a female het Ghost. They should not be much at all. That way you could raise up your het female and then get a ghost male down the road.
Re: im lost need help choosing a morph to purchase from the expo
but wouldnt it be better to prove out the spider with a visual ghost ?and down the road do you think ghost combos would be more cooler seeing that i have a butter male that i can breed to my female normal .....other than butter bees and bels i dont see what else i can do with the lesser female ...i still love the morph its one of my top 3 favs , but i think a ghost would be kool cause i have no ress animals and i wanna work on a few projects not just 1

your right about it being better to prove out the spider with a visual, if the spider is het, you will have a 50/50 shot of each egg being hypo, if the female is only het hypo then it drops your chances down to 25%, little bad luck and you might think hes not het hypo, when in reality it was just bad luck and he is.

what else you can do? well besides breeding it to a spider for lesserbees or a butter/lesser for BEL, there about close to 100 other morphs out there by now. you can make combos with all of them also.... lol
Re: im lost need help choosing a morph to purchase from the expo
with the males i have right now what could i do with a lesser lol ....im really into the butter super pastels one of my other projects i want to work on

Re: im lost need help choosing a morph to purchase from the expo
i ended up picking up a 07 pinstripe female the deal was to awesome to pass up she is awesome looking will post pics later ....im still going to purchase a ghost to
Re: im lost need help choosing a morph to purchase from the expo
I still think you should get a mojave het ghost, pastel ghost or a calico.
Mainly because I really like coliders, mojave spiders and a pastel ghost would work wonders in your collection:D.
