Which one?
I know I have posted a couple of these guys, but the rest have shed now! I need the forums help with this choice:)
I promised my 13 yr old little sis a baby! I'm going to give her a complete set up and teach her the proper way to care for a snake. I'm giving her a female spider with the agreement that she gives her back to me if she ever gets tired of her. My dad lives about 3 miles from me, so it will not be a problem to check up on her and drop her off rats once a week. I was lucky enough to get 4 female spiders out of my first 2 clutches:D I'm going to keep the other 3 for myself. My little sis does not care which one she gets! Which one would you give up??

Number 4 is less clean so I'd Give her up.
Check out what's new on my website... www.Homegrownscales.com

They're all great spiders. I'm loving 1 and 2!
For me, it's be between 3 & 4...I'm leaning towards giving up 3 though. I like 4's high white, head pattern, and the dot on it's neck right by it's head.
Ok, yeah, I voted giving up #3.
-
I picked #3 just because you want to give one up.......................... me, I would keep them all:D
-
This was really hard! I'm a huge fan of head patterns and 1 and 2 have the best heads. 4 has higher white sides than 3. You have a lucky sister. 1 is my favorite by far.
-
I really like the first female!

Re: Which one?
why not get her a nice normal?

Re: Which one?
Thanks everyone for the great input! I'm still not sure which one to give her. I'm leaning towards girl 2 or 3 right now. Girl 3 is a little bit frisky, so I'll have to wait to see if she settles down after her first meal.

I have a normal girl for her, but I am very guilty of spoiling. There is a 18 year age gap between us, and I lost my older brother. To top it off, I don't have any kids. I have always spoiled my little sis. I bought her a horse a few years back and haul her around to horse shows all summer. Were very close. If I had a better snake to give her I would, but my best baby right now is a female spider.

I picked number 2 because she has the lowest white of the four
-
Definitely keep 1 and 2...I'd give up 3
-
3 or 4... the first 2 look somewhat 'unique'
-
^ this guy :D i say get her 1... i wouldnt be able to pick... so id just end up buying 1 for her hahaha
-
#2 cuz the other 3 have high white sides & i'd keep them as future breeders with those sides...or you can let your little sis pick which one she wants.:D
-
i'd give her
-
Re: Which one?
I really like number two! I just love spiders and if I were to get one I would most definitely choose the second one!
-
Re: Which one?
depends on if you like the sister or not...
LOL,
I would pick number one for sure. Odds are even if she doesn't give it back to you , you will still have the opportunity to breed with it later. That said there is probably at least a 50% chance you will get it back some day so pick the best looking one!

Re: Which one?
I still can't make up my mind. I'm thinking about keeping #1 for myself because she was out of my first clutch ever and was the first baby out of the egg. I just cut a 2 egg clutch last night and they are both spiders:D I think I'm just going to have to make her choose. She said she does not care, but I'm going to have her hold them and pick one!
Additional info!
Females 1 & 2 are from the first clutch.
Here is mom

Females 2 & 3 are from my second clutch.
Here is their mom

Re: Which one?
when i want to give something,i will give the best one..so number 1 for me..she will appreciate it.

I would give her the one that is eating best, least wobble and best personality. Since it is her first snake those are important. I honestly wouldn't give a spider as her first one. What if it starts to wobble and corkscrew like crazy in a few months? That might be a bit disheartening for your sister. A normal would be my choice.
