for all you spider owners out there...

Here's a great write up that Adam recently did on Spiders:


The Real Spin on Spiders

Amazing.

I have only seen a few other people hit on my two most important traits in Spiders. I am in agreement with Daniel, in that I love the bright orange that borders the black pattern in some Spiders. I also look for a really wacked out head pattern. I do also like really reduced and high white sides, but head pattern and orange bordering are my criteria (I used those criteria when picking out my original male by the way). Here is one of my favorite Spiders that we hatched this year.





And here are some hold back females from this year.


Great Thread,

Tim,

You have some ridiculously good looking spiders! I love that top right girl with the nice barbwire back.

A spider male and female are definitely on my must have list this year.

I love the looks of spiders, but after seeing a few that would sit with their head totally upside down 24/7 I have decided not to work with them. I don't look down on anyone who does breed them; they are just not for me. Below is a link to a pic of a really bad one (There is also a pic of the nicest one I have ever seen on the same page). There are a few other bad ones on the below thread but the pics on page 8 are what made me decide against buying any spiders. It's ashame to. I was planning on trying for a lesser bee next year, but now I am going for a king pin instead.

Can someone please post what exactly to look for as far as wobble, spinning, weird behavior, etc?


I have not noticed any odd behavior from my female spider. She acts and moves just like the rest of the BP's.

According to Adam, all spiders have the quirks and can be seen if you know what to look for?

This peaked my curiousity. What exactly should I look for so I can check?
