    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    #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 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

    And of course The proud poppa! (I'm sure you have already seen his pics LOL)

    He is also the father of the two eggs that I just cut.

    Wow! They look like sisters:O Morgan is only 1100 grams after she laid. She just started eating for me again. I got her when she was about 800 grams and a mouser. She will take rats now and got up to about 1700 grams before she laid.

    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.
