    Fatal/Lethal breedings
    So I was watching the NERD video on this subject. Are the only ones

    HGWoma to HGWoma
    Champaign to spider
    Champaign to champaign
    And they mentioned
    Sable to spider is bad too

    Is there anything more that can be fatal

    There are also a few that are not lethal, but can cause some problems for the babies. Super black plasters/super cinnies, super lessors/butters, caramel albinos,

    Female deserts should not be bred as they can become gravid but are not able to pass eggs and will become egg-bound and subsequently die (or at least that is how I understand it).

    Isn't spider x spider lethal? Maybe I read that wrong somewhere...

    Jag x Jag in carpets, the BELs don't make it.

    Sable x Spider is supposedly lethal but Cold Blooded Addiction has been able to breed a butter spider x sable. Check out http://ball-pythons.net/forums/showthread.php?t=183491

    The first pic is a butter sable spider. There's also a pic of a sable spider in that thread as well. Keep your eyes peeled on an updated thread on their status!

    The video cover spider and spider. The NERD team said they produced many spiders and spiders over and over. They assured it wasn't lethal in anyway

    I know when he said that all I could think is that coldbloodedaddiction produced a sable butter spider and it appears fine. They said that that gene in general has problems and shouldn't be mixed. But they did have a sable spider that was pretty big. But he said it has its problems. I don't know :/

    Gotchya! Thanks for clarifying. So is there just not a super spider? Maybe that's what it was saying?

    Correct; there is no visual difference between a heterozygous spider and a homozygous spider.

    No one has ever conrfirmed the existence of a super spider, actually. I personally believe that it does not exist however I can't tell you why it can't be created.

    Hmmm... interesting. I wonder why spiders have so many genetic "issues," for lack of a better word.

    Sorry to hijack! Just curious... carry on!:D

    It appears like that right?

    You can't mix champaign and spider

    You should mix sable and spider

    I wonder if there's other spider combos that shouldn't really occur
    :/
