    Stinger bee or Simply Spider?

    i bought this spider not long ago sold to me as a stinger bee and to this point i've been certain that's what she was. but after posting on facebook a guess that morph most people got it on the first try but then i had 2 people who were convinced she was just a spider. i have very bad anxiety so i'm still pretty confident just nervous and feel i should post here to confirm. here's pics of her when she was sold to me (brighter colors and white arm) and pics of her recently[IMG]file:///C:/Users/aotmc/Downloads/20181125_161744_resized.jpg[/IMG][IMG]file:///C:/Users/aotmc/Downloads/20181125_161807_resized.jpg[/IMG][IMG]file:///C:/Users/aotmc/Downloads/93360733_2551655175100742_7728337003934121984_n.jpg[/IMG][IMG]file:///C:/Users/aotmc/Downloads/94017600_217920809540083_2427859886176993280_n.jpg[/IMG]

    Unless she is showing any weird symptoms like corkscrewing a lot, I honestly wouldnt worry. Some morphs can be very difficult to identify, even for breeders. Even if she was a spider, many dont really have significant issues.

    @Turningstar I think you misunderstand the question, stinger bee contains the spider morph as well as enchi, the OP just wants to know our opinion on whether the enchi is present in this spider or not.

    I think that your snake shows to be stinger bee from what I can see in these pics, and if the person you bought her from is someone that is at least halfway knowledgeable, I wouldn't doubt them. The big gimme for enchi in almost any combo is the reduction of pattern that it causes, and the headstamp would be affected, and her head stamp looks stinger bee to me. I don't see a ton of pattern reduction but it could be lower expression of enchi causing it.

    If you are planning on breeding her she should prove out pretty easily whether enchi is there or not.

    Yeah, I must have misunderstood.

    From the anxiety comment, I thought op was worried about the controversy involving spider genetics and didnt realize they got spider in the morph.

    Thats what I get for reading and commenting with 3 kids running around me!

    Yeah, times are tough, just another day in quarantine. I'm actually pretty happy to be home cooped up with all the snakes, but I also don't have any kiddos to worry about yet either. Just all the animals.
