Actually looks like he is upside down. The brown is his top and the yellow is the bottom you can tell my the tail on the left side of the photo.

Looks to be a browned out bee

Ah, yes. Agreed.

The OP posed it in question form so are we in for a weird answer?

Looks like a Bee to me, too.

Just looks like a Bee to me aswell.
Don't know what else they could have it listed as.:confused:

Beeeee :D

I saw browned out bee, but it was listed as a yellow belly spider!

it could just be a regular spider with alot of yellow going on. i saw a thread with a normal spider with a belly like that. but the head looks like a bee..

what was the asking price?

Hmmmmm, dont know that ive seen one before! Possible?

i could be wrong but it kind of looks similar to the bumble belly

So my guess is that it belongs to somebody who doesn't know too much about bps and they assume the yellow of this snakes belly makes it a yellow belly. In reality, most spiders have some yellow scales like that in varying amounts.

IMHO it is a bee and looks half decent to me. If the asking price is fair, I would say go for it. Good luck.

Ask to see the pareent when you go pick him up. Can you spot a YB? I thinks its a good bet its a BumbleBelly. Contrary to popular belief not everybody lies on craigslist.

Not to be mean but can you spot a yellow belly? On this pic (granted its a crappy pic) there is no checkering of the black stripes of the spider when they get to the belly. Yellow bellys have checkering, not "yellow" belly scales. It's a bit of a bad name. A normal everyday spider has those yellow belly scales like mine here:

He is in shed in that pic but u can see the yellow scales. The snake in question is a bumblebee. I'm 99.9% sure.
